Singing priest Fr Ray Kelly to sign with major record label

Four weeks ago, when a Westmeath priest sang at a couple’s wedding, he had no idea the video would go viral.

A month later, Fr Ray Kelly's version of Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah has been viewed more than 34 million times.

Since the clip went viral, Fr Kelly has been inundated with requests to perform at events and has appeared on television and radio in Ireland as well as Europe and Australia.
