Live music review: Paul Brady

Vicar Street, Dublin

Great musicians often have a great back catalogue, a profusion of songs. And this is the case with Paul Brady. As he told the Vicar Street audience, the Sunday performance would include songs not sung in years. We were in for a treat.

He opened with ‘I Believe in Magic’, from the 2000 album Oh What A World, setting the tone for the night with its eclectic mix of acoustic, traditional and rock n roll blended styles.
