Stephen McDaid
Donegal-born Stephen has had a very diverse career, untethered to any particular genre.
He began his musical life playing in his father Dominic’s country band while still in primary school, and spent his formative years in the metal and alternative scene all over Ireland.
He released ‘Trail Maps’, his first solo outing, this year. An all-acoustic 11-track album recorded in one or two takes, it’s a diverse collection of songs and instrumentals showcasing his riff-heavy guitar style and a wide array of tunings and shape-shifting melodies.
