Michael Hargan in Moville

Michael has been touring the UK, Ireland and New York extensively over the past year on a wave of invitations from organisations and bands who recognised his talents following the release of his impressive debut album ‘Conversations between Us’.

His touring has also included sold-out headline dates in Scotland, Ireland and New York, and invitations to headline shows at festivals such as the prestigious Celtic Connections Festival in Glasgow and The Film Fleadh Foundation (Craic festival) in New York City.

Main Stage

He will be playing full band shows at Festivals during the summer including a main stage spot at The Big In Falkirk Festival in Front of an estimated 100,000 people

A truly amazing talent, Glaswegian singer songwriter Michael Hargan will have you mesmerised during his live performance.

Improvisation

Equally at home playing solo, with a band or a string quartet, no 2 shows are ever the same and his ability to turn a 3 minute song into a 15 minute improvisation is a focal point in his live show.

Inspired by the spirit of bands like U2, Counting Crows, Pearl Jam, Bob Dylan, Johnny Cash and The Frames, Hargan takes hold of his audience during his live shows and let's them go when he decides.

Beatles Fan

He is a huge Beatles fan and has decided to break off from recording his new album to fly over for the weekend for Ireland's only BeatlesFest (there are none in Scotland).

He wants to play only one gig just to pay for the expenses so that he can be here for Moville's Beatlesfest.

It's starting to get quite exciting.
