Ken's next gigs:

16th June Bloomspace @ The Sextant, Albert Quay. STARTS @ 6PM
Celebrate Irish literarature's most famous day, by joining Ken Cotter and like minded Joyce nuts in singing songs from Ulysses, eating the innards of beasts and fouls, devouring cheese sandwiches and drinking wine.
Ken will be performing 4 new original songs based on Joyce's famous novel, and some songs from the book.
There will be performances by sopranos Muireann Cussen and Antoinette Geary, who will sing songs from the book accompanied by Mark Slade on piano.
Special guests will read their favourite passages from Ulysses, and everyone is welcome to take part.
The evening kicks off at 6 o clock with some food and wine, and the performances will take place between 6.30 and 8 o clock.
Come early to avail of the complementary wine. To paraphrase the ad, once all the free wine is gone, it's gone...

26th- 28th June Sherkin Shindig. A three day festival of music and goodtimes. Guaranteed to be special.

About the Album AGENT ORANGE

'Well-travelled Corkman Cotter does his own neat take on indie-pop classicism with impressive production courtesy of the Frank and Walters' Ashley Keating. The chugging rush of 'Bricks And Mortar' recalls the Split Enz hit 'I got You'; 'And Again' is a Morrissey-like ballad while the sublime 'River Valley Road' is a real highlight. ’ (Colm O Hare HotPress)
