PRESENTED BY TOM MILLETT
Eugene's debut album "Little Apples" is out now and is available for download on iTunes and from 7 Digital (All Details Below)
Recorded in Kinvarra, Co Galway under the watchful eye of producer Declan ORourke, its set for release this Spring. Made up of 11 songs, the album touches on Donegan's hopes and experiences.
Despite his Meath roots, he is heavily influenced by American Country Legends. In his music you can hear the unmistakable footprints of Bruce Springsteen, Kris Kristofferson and Johnny Cash, artists whose songwriting reflect honesty and directness, qualities prevalent in Donegans writing.
The album includes a multiplicity of songs from classical intimate acoustic ballads like "Martha's Field" to all out rockers like "Heaven is a place inside".
Having finished off 2008 on a high, supporting the likes of ORourke, Damian Dempsey and Cathy Davey as well as performing a number of successful solo gigs with Drogheda band Geriko.
Eugene Donegan is currently embarking on his first national tour to coincide with his debut album release.
Tune in again tomorrow!!!
