InfluencesFamily, friends, respect, laughter, community . As for music well the list is long and ever expanding, but here goes; My Father Ruan O Lochlainn, Dónal Lunny, Jimi Hendrix, Bob Dylan, Frank Zappa, Bob Marley, Planxty, Jeff Beck, Led Zeppelin, The Bothy Band, Traditional Irish Music, Robert Johnson, Bukka White, J.J. Cale, Stones, Stephen Stills, Beatles, Chuck Berry, Django Reinhardt, Billie Holiday, Woody Guthrie, James Brown, Stevie Wonder, Anoushka Shankar...well I'll add to this list.

Here are a few quotes that influence my perspective.

“All religions, arts and sciences are branches of the same tree. All these aspirations are directed toward ennobling man's life, lifting it from the sphere of mere physical existence and leading the individual towards freedom.” (Albert Einstein)

"Realize that we are all one, basic! Not as an idea but as a fact; because when you go to India, you see the misery, the confusion, the anxiety, the despair of people, running to their petty little gods whom they have created. You come to Europe it’s exactly the same thing. First to realize, not verbally but in your heart, in your blood, your whole thinking, that human beings right through the world, go through the same agonies that one goes through, the loneliness, the despair the depressions, the extraordinary uncertainty, insecurity, whether they live ten thousand miles away, two thousand miles or here, we are all psychologically bound together. If one realizes that profoundly in your guts, in your blood, in your mind; then you are responsible!" (Krishnamurti)

"When the power of love overcomes the love of power, the world will know peace."(Jimi Hendrix)

"Emancipate yourselves from mental slavery"(Bob Marley)

"He who lives with untruth lives in spiritual slavery. Freedom is still the bonus we receive for knowing the truth."(Martin Luther King)


“Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Ye shall know them by their fruits.”(Biblical Script)

"Don't hate nothing at all except hatred"(Bob Dylan)

“to crooked eyes truth may wear a wry face.”(J.R.R. Tolkien)

Sounds Like

'Not only does he demonstrate a knack for observant songwriting, but he's an impressive guitarist and musters a vocal range that stretches from dry witticisms to power-crooning worthy of Jeff Buckley."

~ Time Out NYC



"Lovely, lyrical, spiritual, a joy to listen to"

~ Howard Zinn



“When Fionn played "Waterside" live in the studio for our radio show, he left everyone in the room breathless. His voice is incredibly pure and always soulful. An amazing performer, songwriter, and recording artist.”

~ Mark Sutton, NPR Producer



"magic writing, magic playing, magic album"

~ Billy Bragg


"The up-and-coming Irish singer-songwriter Fionn Ó Lochlainn plays a hard-rocking guitar..."

~ The New Yorker
