Goodtime Charlie - Vinyle Orange

Description

Mick Flannery is one of the most acclaimed Irish singer-songwriters. The award-winning, double-platinum artist has released seven studio albums, three of which reached number one. On September 15, he will release his eighth studio album 'Goodtime Charlie', featuring collaborations with Valerie June, Anaïs Mitchell, and Tianna Esperanza. Mick has partnered with the American label Oh Boy Records, marking their first non-American signing. "Mick Flannery has a voice for the ages, a complete master of his craft," said Clash Magazine, while the Sunday Times noted that he "evokes exquisite storytelling." His last album in 2021 was a collection of duets with rising Irish artist Susan O'Neill. The American songwriter called "In The Game" a "painful masterpiece." The record was nominated for the Choice Music Prize and won the RTE Radio 1 Song of the Year award two years in a row for the tracks "Baby Talk" and "Chain Reaction." The album was the best-selling independent record in Ireland in 2021. Mick Flannery's songs often express the layered aspects of the human condition, its flaws, triumphs, and general uncertainty. Originally a stonemason by trade, he has previously described his stage presence as that of a "mountain goat," but over the years, that shy awkwardness of the so-called mountain goat has begun to dissipate. His live performances are known for their self-deprecating humor, audience engagement, and the ability to take people on a journey of both sorrow and joy, often in the same breath.
