‘No More Clones’ is the debut album from Limerick-born artist Shane O’Neill.
Shane grew up in a house filled with music, regularly falling asleep to the sound of his father playing guitar, his mother singing. Close harmonies and finger-picking guitar style forming the soundtrack to his childhood.
When his father bought him a guitar for his 12th birthday, that was it! Shane taught himself to play and has been writing and singing songs ever since.
After taking time out to cycle round the coast of Ireland in aid of the RNLI, Shane decided it was time to record an album.
The result is ‘No More Clones’; a really rich sounding album that weaves through a wide range of current themes from climate change to true love.
One of the most poignant songs on the album is ‘Video Dreams’, dedicated to a friend who became homeless on the streets of London and was stolen from the world far too prematurely. While the title track is a reminder to all of the need for self-care in the midst of a global pandemic.
But love, positivity and optimism have the last say in the album’s anthemic finale ‘Stars Burn Out’.
‘No More Clones’ was produced by Bill Shanley at Cauldron Music and is available on all the usual digital platforms.
