Seamus Fogarty

Seamus Fogarty is an Irish singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist working in folktronica, a style that combines folk songwriting with electronic production. The debut album, God Damn You Mountain, was released in 2012 on Domino Records, and it established the project's blend of acoustic-rooted melodies and electronic textures. Listeners who follow pop, rock and indie will recognise the song-led approach that runs through the catalogue.

Amped is a concert and performance venue in Huddersfield, and this date brings the act to the town. The evening suits anyone interested in singer-songwriter material shaped by electronic sounds, as the folktronica style sits at the centre of the music. Because the act is a singer-songwriter and multi-instrumentalist, the performance centres on the songs themselves and the way they are arranged.

Fogarty's work can be followed through the debut record and the wider body of songs, which offer a clear starting point for newcomers before the concert. Those who already know the album will hear the same stylistic concerns carried into a live setting.
