Declan Sinnott

Originally from Wexford town, where his father was an optician and jeweller on Main Street, he came to Dublin in the late 1960s.

Around 1970, he was a member of the poetry-and-music group Tara Telephone, in which he composed, sang, and played guitar.

He played to a full house in Wexford's Arts Centre on his homecoming gig in July 2012, one night after his sell out show with Christy Moore in Galway.

I Love The Noise It Makes and Window On The World have received a favourable reception in both Ireland[1] and abroad.
