PRESENTED BY JESS KORPACZ THE BALCONYTV INTERN

Since starting writing music 3 years ago, Cathal Flaherty has spent the last year locked away in Sonas studios with his band under the watchful eye of engineer Tony O' Flaherty. Sharing the studio among other Irish artists such as Mick Flannery and John Spillane, Cathal and his band Kieran Healy, Ivan Cooper, Ronan Kealy and Adam Cooper felt right at home and quickly began recording Cathals debut EP 'Lost & Found'. 'the idea behind this Ep took shape only when we started recording it. I had most of the songs written by this stage but didn't know where I was going with it. I think the general idea behind the EP is about how life is always evolving, and how what we have or who we are now could change so fast, sometimes for the better, sometimes for the worst. I sometimes find when I listen to a cd that I can't relate to it or understand it completely but I feel with this record everyone can relate to it in there own little way, that's what I love about it.'
In the last year, Cathal has had the privilege of supporting one of his favourite singers Jack L answell as other great Irish artists such as The Walls and Brian Kennedy. He was also invited by Jack L to play 'The Ruby Sessions', Dublins top acoustic club who has played host so some great bands such as Paolo Nutini, The Script and Mumford & Sons to name but a few. He has also appeared on Balcony TV twice, all this since September 2010.
