O'Leary Rocks

Mike O'leary - FootprintI would like this album `Footprint` to show my songwriting skills within what I call `Essex Americana` being much more of a Rootsier album than before. Blues is my hub or centre and on this album every song is a different spoke or take on that genre. From Chicago style Blues to Country blues, Swamp Blues, Rock Blues ballad to R&B.

I would also like to bring to attention what we are doing to this planet re Industrial pollution and the disastrous effects on the weather globally. Perhaps it is now too late? - there is no such thing as normal seasons as it seems recently in the UK. This album is dedicated to the millions of people that have suffered in Floods, Earthquakes, Tsunamis in the last few years. Governments need to stand up now and be counted.

I have wanted to record a BluesRock album for a few years now but time- especially looking after the nine to five part of life has been against me.

Like many others around the world my music has been confined to jamming and the odd gig with local musos. But writing the odd tune now and again has come naturally over the years and there is nothing like going into the studio and seeing your work evolve, build in colour and gain substance.

Mike O'leary - Vagabond Devil & the WhoreVagabond, Devil & the Whore is a six track EP which I am very pleased with recorded at Sound magic studios in Essex UK. These are raw, bluesy rock songs that just won't let you off the hook. The band `The Missionaries` Keith, John and Andy are terrific semi pro guys I hooked up with while jamming and there is no doubt we have a fair way to go down the same road. Always open to gigs!

I will use this site to show future projects and albums/demos recorded in the past. As a singer/songwriter no doubt this is a great medium in which to present my orginal songs and if anything comes of it, even better. Keep it Live!
