Neil Ó Briain is fast gaining a reputation as an excellent composer and arranger for the acoustic guitar.

Hailing from Cork, he weaves melody, bass and harmony together at ease and provides compelling performances. His music ranges from traditional Irish to contemporary fingerstyle, taking inspiration from artists such as Tony McManus, Tommy Emmanuel and Ryuichi Sakamoto.

Neil began his solo career playing the cafés and bars of Kagoshima, Japan, where he lived for several years. Upon returning home, he released his debut album Immram and began gigging around Cork and further afield.

He has performed at the Belfast Guitar Festival and Ards International Guitar Festivals, Re-Jigged Festival and the Halifax Celtic Festival in Nova Scotia, Canada.
