David Keenan – Unholy Ghosts
A hAon, a do, a tri…
So begins the new single from Dundalk troubadour David Keenan (top), who rounds off a busy year with a rousing celebration of the hobos he meets on his travels.
David says:
“I wrote this song on a train from Amsterdam [Netherlands] to Cologne [Germany], finished it as the train ceased to move, brought it in me to a Chapel in Cologne, sang it for the first time, left the Chapel with a liberated German bible under my arm as a souvenir.
“Reconciling my act of theft with the thought that it would be a useful reference for a line or two at a later date, and that the greater good must prevail…”
David’s debut album A Beginner’s Guide To Bravery drops on January 10.
Nick says: Keen on Keenan.
that’s excellent, really, really good
but david keenan is not going to make it with that haircut
Brother, that’s how the kids are wearing their hair these days. There’s no talking to them.
Curtains are back so.
that may be so, bodger – but seasoned cognoscentes on voguish vagaries like you and i know it doesn’t have to be that way
and know too that it wasn’t always so – the more astute among us will have recognised david keenan from this [ irishexaminer.com/breakingnews/discover/this-dundalk-lad-singing-in-a-taxi-is-surprisingly-good-660493.html ] almost 5 years ago

Great find.
Agreed.
Very,very good.
Hope it’s a success.
Poor fellow can’t even afford a collar.
Never mind a haircut.
Looks like a young Charlie Chaplin
Rik Mayall?
That’s a cracker.
On a street you’ve never heard of, there’s a wooden piano on it’s last legs in a last chance saloon…
