Info for Not Nearly Dark

This debut album, ‘Not Nearly Dark’, showcases Lavery’s relaxed and stripped down style. Lyrically he delves into the realms of life, love and obsession. The album abounds with persistent beats and sinister strings. At the centre of his arsenal is a voice described plainly as a “force of nature” and one reeking of “wisdom and experience”

“This is the sound of a songwriter that is very comfortable in his own skin” (Zane Lowe)

'Lavery’s songwriting is nothing short of remarkable. His most recent EP is his best yet, bursting with can’t-be-faked honesty and emotion' (Hot Press)

'strong, crafted, hugely engaging songwriting' (Jim Carroll, Irish Times)
