John Spillane

John Spillane is a musician, songwriter, performer, recording artist, storyteller, poet and

dreamer. Rooted in people, place and story, his music transports the listener and his live

performances captivate audiences around the world.

As an artist his music appeals to listeners across many genres and generations. His vocal

style has a unique almost sean-nós like quality and his performances shimmer with the

magic realism that permeates many of his songs as he effortlessly flits between beautiful

poetry tinged with melancholy to roguish, irreverent humour. John has the ability to charm,

mesmerise and entertain in equal measure.

A native of Cork, the County he lovingly describes as “the centre of the universe” and a source

of huge creative influence throughout his career. John’s music is inspired by and encapsulates

Irish traditional music in its contemporary form – a reflection of Ireland today.
