Win Tickets For Dave Browne (Picturehouse) In Kilkenny

On Saturday 22nd September Dave Browne and his band including a string quartet will perform live in Cleere’s, Kilkenny.

Dave will release his live EP “Prelude” in October. “Prelude”, will be a taster to Dave’s forthcoming solo album “Windows To The Soul”, which is scheduled for release in the Spring of 2008.

One of Ireland’s most respected musicians, Dave Browne up to this point is best known for being the lead singer and driving force behind The Picturehouse from the band’s inception. He is highly thought of by his peers as a unique vocal and songwriting talent together with being an outstanding piano and guitar player. “Windows To The Soul” is a very personal work and a project which Dave has being working on for the last two year.

“Windows To The Soul” represents a unique fusion of two art forms, Dave Browne and Mieke Vanmechlen – an Irish / Flemish lady who is regarded as one of the finest contemporary artists at this time and whose work has been exhibited on the continent and the USA.

Dave had been familiar with Mieke’s work for some time and Mieke his. Following a casual catch up meeting, Dave gave the artist a copy of his work in progress album. On listening to same, Mieke went into her studio and created a painting for each track she had listened to. He loved her paintings on first viewing and knew immediately that he wanted these pieces to be the artwork foundations for his “Windows To The Soul” album project.

The good stuff!
