Shane Ó Fearghail (pronounced “O Fa-reel”), is an Irish Singer-Songwriter & Artist living in Vienna, Austria. From Dublin, his musical style has been called many things — Irish Indie / Dark Folk is his new calling. In the past Shane has been likened to REM, Crowded House, Glen Hansard, Rufus Wainright III and Ron Sexsmith. He takes that as a big compliment.
Having navigated the waters of the music industry for twenty years, Shane has shared development deals with EMI, short stints with IRL and Polydor, not to mention publishing contracts in Europe and North America. His most recent foray into the record business is with Arge Music Austria. At Arge, he tells us, he can follow the independent path.
