What they are saying...

"A one-man fantasy island of wondrously divergent music."
CULTURE - N.Ireland

" ‘The Heart That Knows Desire’ is a perfect nugget of experimental pop fueled by one of the most interesting new voices I’ve heard all year".CELINA MURPHY, Hot Press.

"Gribbins voice, let off the leash, is extraoardinary, soaring and dipping on oodles of emotion. He has proven he is the possessor of a fearsome, restless musical imagination."
FRANCIS JONES - BBC

"Ciaran Gribbins beautiful, empowered voice acts as a melodious gel cementing together the relative into his cohesive, accessible tunes."
ANDREW BOADEN - Subba Culture

"Gribbin has come up with some more subtle brilliance. He can do the range of feelings from lonely to rejected to completely broken down, bringing his voice from a disconsolate whisper to a devastated scream in the space of one of his epic tunes."
IRISH TIMES

"One of the most extraordinary voices I’ve heard in a long time."
GARY LIGHTBODY – Snow Patrol

"Gribbins voice is big and beautiful. He is the kind of front man with a gentle manner and a longing for greatness as he stands with arms outstretched and eyes tight shut."
DAILY IRELAND

"The emotional depth of his voice is backed by a host of his great songs that more than do it justice."
THE STAR

""A perfect slice of contemporary experimental pop bursting in equal measures with emotion....we now have a future legend on our hands"
Niall Kerr the Mid Ulster Mail.

"The spectral vocals bind and weave his sounds and words together with ethereal rhythm and the sheer emotion of his voice will have you crying in your beer."
ACROSS THE LINE, BBC Radio Ulster

"Softly spoken songsmith Ciaran Gribbin slipped onto the stage almost unnoticed until he unleashed those occasionally sombre, yet oddly uplifting, songs of his, music that exudes tranquillity even in a sweaty north London hell hole like this."
MSN

"His voice could draw blood from a stone, so desperate and pleading are his words that you
can’t help feeling your heart breaking just a little bit too."
HEATHER CRUMLEY – Rock Midgets
