Eamon Alger

Artist Information

Biography

Like most kids I’ve been makin' up songs ever since I could talk; I just never bothered to stop. Once I started playing guitar (age 12 or so) it became "writing songs." Admittedly they got better
with time, but that same sense of fun and desire to
sing and play is still there! Whether it's Rock; Funk; Raegae; Blues;Americana; Celtic or Swing, the songs just write themselves whenever they are ready. " FLYING DREAMS" is Eamon Algers' first major release. Featuring an allstar cast of killer players that showcase a timeless collection of original tunes. Flying Dreams is an ecclectic mix of the dark and the light. From the Sax drenched blues of "Evil Twin"to the haunting fiddle on "Cliffs of Antrim" The songs and styles are all woven into a seamless flow that makes you feel good! Flying Dreams is available online at ZOOMOOZIC.COM, ITUNES, Rhapsody,and MINDBLOWINGMUSIC.NET Eamons' next C.D. "Seeing Persia"is a solo effort due out this spring Recent History

  Eamon, I just purchased your cd "Flying Dreams" online and am looking forward to receiving it. ...Eamon,
  
  I just purchased your cd "Flying Dreams" online and am looking forward
  to receiving it. If you have a mailing list, I would appreciate it if
  you would add me to it so you can alert me when your new cd comes out
  this winter. I still cant get that song "it aint about me" outta my
  head. I listen to alot of music and there are only a few songs that I
  listen to once and it catches my attention the very first time as most
  require listening to a few times, but that song in particular is a
  catchy tune. The bluesy sound in your voice (sorta slingin the words
  together) when you were singing it the other day was pretty awesome.
  Good luck on much success with your music and I look forward to
  receiving "Flying Dreams".
  
  Thanks again!
  Chuck
