Vocalist, Musician, Producer, Audio Engineer, Home Studio, Songwriter, Composer, Lyricist

Pronounced “O Fa-reel”, I am an Irish Singer-Songwriter & Artist living in Austria. From Dublin, my musical style has been called many things — Irish Indie / alternative and Dark Folk. In the past Shane has been likened to REM, Crowded House, Glen Hansard, Rufus Wainright III and Ron Sexsmith.

Having navigated the waters of the music industry for twenty years, I have shared development deals with EMI, short stints with IRL and Polydor, not to mention publishing contracts in Europe and North America. My most recent foray into the record business is with Arge Music Austria. At Arge.

As a songwriter I write in most genres.
