Regarded as one of Ireland's finest songwriters, Gerry Carney came to the fore with his now worldwide hit 'Paddy', a song dedicated to the forgotten Irish - the people that left Ireland for work, and sent the money home to support the families they left behind. Gerry will join the Glenn Flynn Band for a specvial concert in Kilworth on Saturday, Nov 2nd.
'Paddy' is now officially Ireland's favourite song (Sunday Independent poll), and is seen as a song that will go down as having played a major part in re-awakening interest in the plight of these people. But before 'Paddy', Gerry had been touching hearts with song like 'The Flame Just Flickered and Died', 'Nothing Without You', 'The Cottage By The Sea' and many more. Continuously touring England and America, he tells the stories behind his songs, these are stories that everyone can identify with, and the lyrics combined with powerful melodies have earned him a dedicated fan base.
