Colm Lynch has a distinctive style when it comes to playing live. He’s happily aggressive with the guitar, if there could be such a paradox. His live show consists of an eight-piece band and the energy of a small ESB station. His music is rock with a hint of blues and folk. His style is upbeat and his attitude seems to be contagiously reflected in the group he plays with. “This group of musicians have been with me for about 2 years, they seem to understand me inside out. From the very first day they just picked up on the vibe and then of course they lend their own personal gift to it. They’re all heavily invested in it. It feels more like a group thing, than just me now.”
