notes
Fergus O’Farrell is the charismatic voice of one of the most compelling and influential groups to emerge from the Irish music scene in the 1990s. Their live gigs and eponymous album have influencened many of the current wave of innovative Irish singer/songwriters, a fact recognised by their inclusion in the RTE TV series, ‘Other Voices: Songs from a Room’ and their performance of 'Gold' in the film 'Once'
Interference are a group that cross all rock/folk/traditional divides with their string driven hypnotic sound and make a concert a truly moving experience.
RTE’s publicity rightly describes the band as "almost mythical, definitely legendary."
Music Guru Dave Fanning has said "Interference are the only band in Ireland I can't pigeonhole "
Fergus O'Farrell has also widely collaborates : Artists include Black , Camilla Griehsel, Maurice Seezer, Paul Tiernan, David Bickley, Glen Hansard, Maria Doyle Kennedy, Nina Hynes, and Paul Griffin.

Sublime
Fergus O'Farrell's Magical Voice
author: Nolan Winkler...AND lyrics on this CD will melt your heart. With the cello, guitar and violin 'singing' with him....it just doesn't get better than this. BREAKING OUT will amaze you with it's lyrics and artistry. This band is fantastic. Saw them in ONCE and am now SUCH a fan! I play this CD daily in my art studio! BRAVO, INTERFERENCE!!!!***********
A bit of true magic . . .
author: Fred LoweWhere to start? Fergus's voice and phrasing? He's variably beguiling, mischievous, plaintively lyric, amusing, tender -- and all of that in just one song set. The musicianship is subtle and sensitive, well-attuned to the lyrics. As a poet, I find the lyrics themselves allusive, surprising, and sometimes a bit koan-like -- as in Gold ("if your skin was soil . . ."). "Vaj Vaj" is the peak experience of the CD -- a heart-breakingly lovely piece of music, an art song if ever there was one (and never mind that it does not quite fit in any single genre). I'd have given my eye-teeth to have been in St. James Church the night this was recorded . . .
More, please
author: SheriPrayer Before A Voyage is the best thing I've heard in 3 years. This is not an easily described style - modern traditional Irish music with a beautiful depth and breadth.
