LOVE the new songs, can't wait for the release of your 2nd solo album. Was fortunate enough to see you perform in Chicago a few years ago. You are a truly talented songwriter and have one of the most hauntingly beautiful voices around. Hope you never stop making music.

Cane across The Prayer Boat when performing Madame Butterfly in Chicago in 04, friend of mine from Lancashire who lives in Chicago bought me the CD as he had seen you in concert. Your music travels with me and when anyone asks what do Opera singers listen to when it's not Opera I always tell them about Emmet Tinley/Prayer boat and your amazing voice. Lyrics and song structure is rare to find these days. Please keep writing and releasing your music.

Excited about the new demos, and the new album. Absolutely loved Polichinelle and Attic Faith. I can listen to these albums endlessly. Oceanic Feeling not in the same league for me, but I suppose that was almost 20 years ago. You're forgiven!

Oh and we risked life and limb making the trip from Ireland to the Paradiso in December and it was worth it. Great show and the snow outside just seemed so...appropriate somehow. Couple of Paddies who nearly died from exposure in Dam Square!! Got back home safe too so overall a very memorable Christmas!

Once again another Great Emmett show in the Amsterdam Paradiso - pity to hear echoes of a handfull of Arid Bar hangers noise.. you'll never understand the quality of Real Music. Anyway looking forward to hear more Sad songs Emmett! and even more full band shows after the Summer!

Spot on about the snow Rudi, me and a friend were booked to fly to Amsterdam for the Paradiso gig, but flight was cancelled due to snow at the airport!
When I got home and fired up my car, the CD randomly picked out 'Snow Dome'. Had to laugh, but was gutted we couldn't see the gig.

Thanks for the Great shows over the past couple of days: Fantastic Electric show with band in the Paradiso in Amsterdam and Beautiful Acoustic solo show in den Haag! Pity that Winter conditions and an awful lot of Snow kept many fans back home...
See you next year!

And I really hope that you will play this album live at Paradiso intergral. The same way you put it on the record 10 years ago. Your music is specialy made for my heart, See you soon. Play "It hurts to lose you" for me. Theo

"It hurts to lose you" is quite honestly the most beautiful heart churning song that stirs up the most forgotten feelings. The beauty is the emotion in his voice.

@Zoe, you can pick them up off Ebay after a ...long... wait. Hard to come by.
Looking forward to the new album Emmett. You've been threatening one for a while?
Attic Faith and Polichinelle and both masterpieces, timeless, whatever other superlatives you want. "Soon The Stars Will Steer Me" is pure musical perfection.

Polichinelle is in my top 5 albums of all time.
One of the most under rated and underplayed and beautiful albums ever.
I discover The Prayerboat/emmet through his collaborations with my friend and hero Martin Stephenson

I bought Polichinelle many years ago, and recently pulled it out and rediscovered it's immense beauty, especially the extremely emotional title cut. I can relate to it VERY closely. Just tremendous stuff. I've now ordered Attic Faith, and from the samples just now digested, look forward with great anticipation it's delivery. Thanks for such wonderful, feeling music!

I fell in love to Oceanic Feeling in Dublin 1991. Ordered the cassette in Australia from OS as it wasnt released there then! Had a colleague mention you today, and spun out....still smile thinking of your song. I closed my eyes and remembered the feeling of being love for the first time all over again, amazing that music can invoke that.
Thank you.

Hej Emmet, nu fandt jeg dig lige på nettet. Tak for sidst og tak for din cd som jeg alledede har hørt flere gange. Hold kæft, den er virkelig bare smuk. Og det siger én der ellers kun hører Bach og alt det der gamle lort ;-) Har allerede nogle favorites. Hav en god uge og vi ses jo formentlig næste uge samme sted, samme tid. Hej så længeog hilsen fra Philipp

Polichenelle is probably my favourite album by any Irish artist. Saw the Prayer Boat play live in Galway several times around that album, including a tiny and almost bereft gig in the Town Hall Theatre. I may also be one of the few people who have an original cassette of The Oceanic Feeling album which is not bad. The lyricism of the lyrics and honesty and pitch of emotion in the songs, particularly on Polichenelle make them timeless. I hope The Prayer Boat are somehow rediscovered - it's a terrible injustice that they were so overlooked commercially given the combination of talent they represented.

Saw the prayer boat in Temple Bar in 1999. The hairs are still standing on the back of my neck. Polichinelle is still perfect.

Hello Emmett, Attic Faith has been on rotation since it landed in my post box a few months ago and Polichinelle has been worn out! Both stunningly beautiful. Not sure if I'll ever get to see you live since I live in the arse end of the world, but thank you for your masterful music. - sj

Iv had the pleasure of seeing Emmett twice live. Other than that he is is on my stereo every day. He plays the most heartfelt, beautifull, inspiring, relaxing, thoughtfull and fabulous music that I have ever heard and I am a big music fan in general. He is unique in what he does and nobody could ever imitate or come to his music.

Hi Emmet,
Nice to hear from you! My husband and I listened to Polichinelle so many times since the firs day we attended your show in Montréal, on March 17 2002(?)... We still appreciate this music so much and keep playing it in our ipod lately. This album has been my best ever for the past 20 years. We look forward to buy Attic Faith. Wish you the best.

Emmett,
I took out Polichinelle today after many years of absence from my playlist. It sounds as fresh as the first time I heard it. A beautiful piece of work. I Google you and I end up here. I look forward to picking up Attic Faith soon. All the best and hope you find your wat out west to San Francisco some time where we'l guarentee you a big turnout!
