BBC Radio 6 Music - Marc Riley, Adrian Crowley

It is Marc's pleasure to present Adrian Crowley's debut Riley session.

It is our pleasure to give you Adrian Crowley's debut Riley session this fine evening.

Born in Malta, raised in Galway and now living in Dublin, Adrian didn't perform his music until the age of 25. Now he is about to release his sixth album on Chemikal Underground titled I See Three Birds Flying, over this time he has gained a lot of attention, with Ryan Adam's saying he was one of THE best underground songwriters. 

He's performed with the likes of Low, Animal Collective and James Yorkston, as well as collaborating with Yorkston on the yet to be released tribute to Daniel Johnston, The Invaders Salute Captain America. 

Having been around for over a decade we are wondering what has taken us so long to get Adrian Crowley in with his indie folk bent .... well we can set that straight tonight.
