Who is Sweet Oblivion?

I’m a full-time journalist for print and radio, contributing to:

Arena on RTE Radio 1 (music, books & film)

State.ie (music reviews and interviews)

Heineken Music (music reviews & interviews)

Thumped.com (music interviews & features)

Irish Independent (food, health & living features)

The Irish TimesThe Ticket (music features)

The Kildare Nationalist (news, features)

The Evening Echo – Downtown (music features) and Women on Wednesday (features)

The AntiRoom (feminism, women’s issues, features)

4FortyFour (music features) — yet to be launched

I also do a weekly radio show called Sweet Oblivion,  which goes on on the digital station RTE 2XM, every Thursday at 5pm. It’s available on digital radio, online and on Chorus NTL channel 944.

As well as blogging here, I run the Adventures in Veg food blog, and up until recently wrote an accompanying column for the Irish Independent‘s ‘Weekend’ magazine.

This blog features interviews, reviews of gigs , previews of gigs, bits of random music news, and (my favourite bit) discussions on musical topics. Have a look through the archives to see what I’ve written about in the past and please don’t be afraid to comment. (However please note that I can’t post about every band that I am emailed about.)

  5. Caught your show on 2xm by chance during a sunday morning lie-in. Think I’ve found a new radio show to supplement my BBC6 addiction. Nice one dude!
