Every now and then you get the chance to hear something special before everyone else.

Don't like the sound personally.

It is unusual for a local Irish accent to shine through music rather than the default mid Atlantic twang...but this is a Dundalk accent and frankly awful in the spoken or singing word.

I have the 2 sons here with me Roger and we thought David was excellent,he may have to go to other lands to find fame but he has the X factor, like you say very original.

I am unbiased with Dundalk accents, have had very little interaction with them over the years.
With most regional accents all it takes is to meet one bad egg with a certain accent and you will hold it against the whole county forever....sad really.
David is a smashing lad.

Cheers Frank. He has a real talent for sure. I can see his debut album having over 7 or 8 top songs out of 10 on it. A rare feat.

Just for you Frank. You and your 2 boys were the only ones who spotted the greatness. ;)
