Doctor Millar
Special Guest Artist Doctor Millar for September 6/07 Show
“At Last, The 1989 Show!” is delighted to confirm that our special musical guest ofr the inaugural show on September 6th 2007 will be the ineffable chanteur, writeur and playeur, Doctor Millar.
Seán, AKA Doctor Millar would make most people’s A-list of Irish songwriters.
Having split from cult (and critically lauded) rocknroll band The Cute Hoors in 1992 he began working on a new batch of songs which saw release in 1995 as The Bitter Lie. The Bitter Lie got rave reviews in all of the national papers and Sean was nominated as solo Artist of the year, at the Hot Press Heineken awards in 1996 - in the same category as Van Morrison, Gavin Friday and Paul Brady. The bitter lie was included in the Today FM /Sunday Tribune top fifty Irish albums of all time.
His second album The Deal (1998) was as rapturously reviewed and was included in the Sunday times top five albums of the year (see sample press included). His third album Always Coming Home caused the Irish Times - in its five star review! -to proclaim him an Irish National Treasure.
His songs have been covered live by Nina Hynes, Jack L, Camille OSullivan, Joe Chester, and Tom Dunne to name but a few. He has toured in Ireland, England, France, Switzerland, Italy, Norway and Denmark and in the United States and Canada and been the subject of major Articles in all the main Irish publications. He has performed on countless TV and radio shows both in Ireland and abroad.
Sean Presents the Hot Press Hot Spot each week on East Coast Radio - one of the most respected rock shows on the air.
