One of the biggest reactions ever on the show.
We've had The Blaa and John Mullane and now Waterford boasts another export that we guarantee we will all be talking about for the next year.
His name is Chris Breheny, but he goes by the stage name 'Moncrieff' and by God he is good.
"Dance for me, dance for me, dance for me oh oh oh" 💃🏼🐒🎶

A Waterford crystal clear voice he has in spades.
I won't say any more...I'll leave it to the Fergal D'Arcy Show listeners who texted in after they heard him on the show today:
"Wow wow wow..... absolutely class.....John in Castlebar.

Not only did Moncrieff cover 'Tones & I' with his own unique twist he gave us a blast of his latest single 'Like I Do' which is an Adele-esque emotional belter of a song and his pipes are more than a match for it.
Hear for yourself. Put the kettle on. Sit back and treat your ears. Just press play.
He also has an eye for brilliant music videos. This is like a mini movie:
