He is a sorcerer of songs, with a Dickensian skill for finding the moment that details some aspect of our humanity.”<br />– Brendan Graham, Hot Press Magazine (Mar 2012)<br /><br />Declan O’Rourke was a latecomer to the Dublin singer-songwriter scene.<br />But, in his mid-twenties, within months of discovering Dublin’s bustling songwriter open-mic circuit, O’Rourke found himself in the mix with the likes of Paddy Casey, Gemma Hayes, Damian Rice and many other Irish singer-songwriters.
