Pól Mac Adaim writes about himself on his website:
"I was born in Belfast, in the heart of the war often referred to as 'The Troubles' I began playing Irish traditional music at the age of 9 and through the years I learned to play in a wide range of genres, including Folk, Appalachian, Cajun, Rock, Soul and Contemporary. I play a variety of instruments ranging from tin whistles, Traditional Irish flute, Low whistles, Uilleann pipes, harmonicas, guitars (acoustic/Bass), Mandolin, Bodhran and general percussion. I also sing in lead and backing modes.
I've been an audio engineer now for about 15 years and have been producing music for the last 10 years. I've been very lucky to have played in studios and on stages across Europe and the US alongside some of the world's finest musicians from folk bands to rock and pop, as well as working with some great film, TV and Radio crews down the years.
I regularily tour throughout Europe playing mainly my own songs mixed with some traditional Irish
music. I've played on around 40 albums, mainly as a studio session musician, but I have also
recorded four solo albums.
I write songs mainly about situations I've been involved in at home or abroad. Much of my writing has been influenced by the war in Ireland, or similar conflicts around the world. I've spent the best part of my life living in occupied Ireland, so I might as well write about it. I could go on and on, but I won't, so you'll have to google the rest or meet me if you want to know more about me. "
