In April 09 Doug Sheridan released the deluxe edition of his debut album 'Songs From Just Outside The House'. "The album is loosely based on a few people in a small town. It's from their perspective. Most of them are broken people I suppose. It's what they might say if they were asked how they really feel about things" – Doug
Accompanied by an 11-piece band, Doug has played two packed out shows at The Sugar Club in Dublin to celebrate the launch of the album. These shows were followed by a nationwide tour of Ireland in 09.
Doug has recently been asked to appear on many of the countries top radio shows including the Ian Dempsey Breakfast Show (Today FM), Access All Areas (Phantom FM), The Tommy & Hector Show (iRadio) and many more. Singles ‘The Shakes’ and ‘Ghost For You’ have both been play-listed on Today FM
He is currently working on his second album entitled ‘The Bed’ which will be released in early 2010.
So far his debut album has been extremely well received ….…
Superb debut offering from rising Irish singer
‘Rising new Irish talent Doug Sheridan has a set of pipes that could please the angels. His voice is raw, haunting yet utterly impressive. Songs from Just Outside the House…..is a lo-fi tour de force. There are shades of Tom Yorke and Jeff Buckley throughout……as debuts go this one is world class’4 STARS****
