Richard Hawley is prolific. He's released his 8th album last Friday 'Hollow Meadows' to critical acclaim.
This morning he spoke to Ian about the new record, his friendship with the legendary Tony Fenton & his wife of twenty-five years Helen.
We had his single 'Heart of Oak' as song of the week recently & if you like what you hear, why not pop along to Vicar St in Dublin on Oct 30th. His live shows are pretty good!
Have a listen below - he really is a morning person!
