Metronome: Ger Eaton; Andrew Keeling

GER EATON 
Andrew Keeling 

GER EATON, whose distinctive keyboards have graced many Dublin and Irish bands of the last two decades, is the Irish singer and sonic auteur behind a remarkable and acclaimed set of songs released as singles over the past two years, both on his own imprint and by enterprising London label Dimple Discs who spotted a good thing and snapped him up. Beginning with I Thought I'd A Friend and continuing through the beautiful Hollow, The Time It Takes To Fall, Phoenix (Reborn), Home Again and most recently Season Changes, Ger's work carries echoes of Scott Walker, Jimmy Webb, Brian Wilson and the high melodic heyday of the late 1960s, yet shot through with a contemporary slant and edge.  Each new song and accompanying video has marked an exciting stage in Ger's progress and has received recognition by Irish and UK DJs and tastemakers alike. 

After much preparation Ger has fashioned a 10 piece band to do justice to the gorgeous complexity of his recordings, and will be launching his long awaited debut LP, 'Season Changes'.

Support on the evening will be from Ger's friend and orchestrator Andrew Keeling with vocalist Toni Kay.  After hearing singer-songwriter Toni perform in 2019, guitarist/flautist/writer, Andrew, suggested they form a duo. Since then they have performed their own material at the Clane Festival and various venues in and around Dublin.
