For thirty years Danny has been bringing the ballads, history and stories of Ireland to audiences around the world. He has a way of conjuring up the Irish island with songs and vivid tales. Somehow, after you've heard this quintessential Irishman, you can nearly taste the salt aroma of a west Clare gale, you can faintly hear the distant call of a Kerry shepherd to his dog, and you can almost hear the mist falling on Dublin's Ha'penny Bridge. Danny Doyle has been described as "the greatest Irish ballad singer of all time" by such extraordinary Irish music legends as Donal Lunny, and Danny's long time record producer Bill Whelan, composer of the Broadway show Riverdance. Critics around the world have been just as effusive in their praise --

 

What people are saying about Danny Doyle:

Irish Echo, New York, April 1996:

"He is one of that rare and cherished group of Irish singers whose voices are instantly recognizable. Doyle is an international treasure."

Washington Post, April 1996:

"An inveterate collector of folk songs, be they traditional or contemporary, familiar or obscure."

The Anchorage Times, April 1996:

"The poetic ballads alone would have assured satisfaction, but Doyle made the performance exhilarating by encouraging participation in the lighter numbers."

The Irish Times (Dublin), October 1995:

"Doyle is indeed Ireland's finest balladeer. His voice is beautiful, his guitar playing never overshadows the lyrics and his stage patter warm, engaging and often hilarious."
