Grainne Duffy
Out of the Dark

Unsigned Irish songwriter Grainne Duffy sent us a polite letter asking for a review of her debut release- and her incisive lyrics, gutsy original material and husky vocals ensured she got one. In a world of paperweight chick-rockers Duffy is the real deal.

Grainne Duffy
Currently finishing tracks for her second album, as a follow up to her debut album Out of the Dark which was released last year to warm reception which included her being asked to appear for three days at Glastonbury 2008 Festival alongside Joan Baez, Suzanne Vega, Sinead O Connor, Glen Hansard, Seasick Steve and The Blockheads to name but a few. Grainne also appeared at many of Ireland's leading festivals and was also approached by the BBC to record a track for a T.V. promotion campaign in George Martin's Air Studio in London. This year she has taken part in two T.V. shows for R.T.E. One of which was for the highly acclaimed music programme Other Voices and the second was a documentary piece for the most watched R.T.E. series Nationwide with a featured interview with highly respected music agent for Tom Waits, Jackson Browne, Paul Brady, Ray Davies and many more Paul Charles. Also Grainne’s performance on Other Voices was then selected for the special viewers choice programme. Her music is also featured in Belfast director and film maker Carol Moore's movie 'PUMPGIRL', debuting at Belfast Film Festival this year staring well known actress Geraldine Hughes. Grainne has also appeared alongside Paul Brady for the re opening of the newly refurbished Ulster Hall and also at the renowned Celtic Connections Festival in Scotland together with many other European festivals. She has also recently just returned from a tour in Norway where she will be releasing her debut album later this year.
