Singer/songwriter Rob Halligan releases first solo album.
THE EAGERLY awaited solo debut album by Midlands singer/songwriter Rob
Halligan will be released independently in October. 'Dancing With
Seagulls' was produced by Simon Goodall and features songs some of
which were inspired by the death of Rob's father, who was working in
the USA, in the 9/11 tragedy. Halligan, who also leads the rock band
Goldsmiths, admits to being influenced "by everyone from Jeff Buckley
to Wes King." In November Halligan will be flying to New York where
Emmy Award winning Siberian Films will be shooting a video of Rob's
song, "Streets Of This Town", from the album. Also appearing in the
video will be Rob's American namesake Rob Halligan, who leads the band
Ceili Rain.
