Al O’Kane

Al O’Kane is a West Country troubadour who folds Jimi Hendrix into the sound of Celtic resistance rock n’ roll. Part Waterboys, part Velvet Underground, Al’s music is a cry for action nestled into a fiery acoustic blend.

Having played Glastonbury Festival and numerous gigs alongside the likes of Eddie Martin, Martha Tilston, Kevin Ayers, Cara Dillon, Ben Ottewell, Nick Harper and Seth Lakeman – he is “set for BIG things – beautiful and catchy songs” (BBC Somerset)

“The songs I write are based on my imagination, spirituality, humour, opinions and experiences in life, whether that’s people or situations I’ve encountered or an inner exploration on a certain feeling or topic, it all depends on the vibe I’m going for and what head-space I’m in when I write… my main aim is to get something different whilst staying true to myself”
