Critics
What the critics have said about Kevin's solo debut album "Looking for Murphy":
"Kevin plays and experiments with sounds and instruments in his songs to provide the listener with a unique but compelling musical experience… This an album of the highest quality forged in the fire found only in the belly of someone who really believes in what they do. Buy it." Music Review UK
"The first thing you notice when you listen to Looking For Murphy is Kevin Barry's voice, bruised, battered but utterly brilliant…… each listen to the record reaps new rewards…" Hot Press Ireland
"Songwriter whose powerful voice and thoughtful lyrics have finally begun to attract the kind of acclaim he deserves…."
