Dublin based, Preachers Son are Brian Hogan (Kíla) on guitar and vocals and Emmaline Duffy-Fallon (previously of Engine Alley) on drums and vocals. They describe their music “like a David Byrne, Scott Walker collaboration, or Queen’s greatest hits circa 1980 vs Morrison Hotel. A Led Zeppelin / Leonard Cohen crossover sort of Johnny Cash, Duane Eddie, Bowie doing Talking Heads kinda thing”.

 

Brian Hogan is a preacher’s son. His dad was Larry Hogan who was part of the Irish 60’s folk scene with his group We 4. In 1974 he scored a number one album Simple Song Of Love, which led him to preaching and teaching through music before he died in 1998 - the band’s name was chosen in his memory.
