| PADDY HOMAN, , a traditional Irish singer from Cork is making his mark in Chicago where his powerful voice resonates with all the energy and richness of his Celtic inheritance; the bard of Cork and the River Lee, now the bard of Chicago and Lake Michigan. A popular Chicago balladeer, he has been featured on WGN radio with Rick Kogan, in The Chicago Tribune and on National Public Radio. "The extra element that Paddy adds to each lyric separates mere music from art--the man is an artist" - Landmark Gallery, Kenenbunkport, Maine. Paddy is a regular performer at Chicago's Irish American Heritage Center and other venues in the windy city, including frequent guest appearances on Irish radio and TV programs. He maintains an active performance schedule and has given over one hundred concerts in Boston, New York, Chicago and the Quad cities, Milwaukee, Maine, New Hampshire and Ireland. |
