The gorgeous voice and reflective lyrics of the Dublin singer songwriter James Vincent McMorrow is a favourite of ours at Kilkenny Tourist Hostel. His debut album ‘Early in the Morning’ is a collection of songs recorded over 5 months in an isolated house by the sea and had gained him a loyal fan base. His concert in St Canice’s Catheral in Kilkenny during the 2011 Kilkenny Arts Festival was a hushed and beautiful affair and the best thing we experienced during the whole 10 days!

Here he is performing at ‘Other Voices’  in St James’ Church in Dingle County Kerry..see for yourself  why we love him:
