BIO
KELVIN HALLORAN
Founding member, Singer, Songwriter, Guitarist
He started writing his own songs about 10 years ago. As a full time carer for his 2 disabled sons meant all his energy was taken p looking after them. One day he decided to buy a guitar and wrote a song called `Always'. He sang the song at his mates wedding and it was very well received. It got him thinking that perhaps he could write music. He has now written well over 40 tracks to date!
