PREACHERS SON is like a David Byrne, Scott Walker collaboration. Queens greatest hits circa 1980 vs Morrison Hotel. A bit angsty, a bit Bowie a wee bit Ska. Rock, blues, country, punk, croon, Mars (God of War). It's like a Led Zeppelin, Leonard Cohen crossover sort of Bowie, Johnny Cash Talking Heads kinda thing...

Background:
Brian Hogan is a musician from Dublin and has been playing in bands since the age of ten. At present he is chief bass-man with contemporary Irish group KILA, with whom he co-composes and travels the world. With KILA he has won a Meteor award, earned a platinum, several gold discs and achieved a number-one-hit alongside U2, The Dubliners and the Band of Bowsies with the single The Ballad Of Ronnie Drew. He has enjoyed playing with George Hamilton IV, Bono, U2, Sinead O Connor, The Dubliners, Paul Brady, Donal Lunny, Liam O Maonlaoi, Glenn Hansard, The Cheeky Girls.
This new line up, Preacher's Son (the name referring to his father Larry Hogan who spent his life preaching and singing), contains his own compositions with the odd cover thrown in. Together with drummer Emmaline Duffy-Fallon - previously of Engine Alley fame, Jose Carlos Anselmo Flores from Seville on bass. It's kind of an ACDC-ABBA crossover sort of Johnny Cash doing Talking Heads kinda thing.
