Declan was born in the heart of Ireland in Drumlish, County Longford, at a unique period in the music scene worldwide.
A revolution in rock and pop brought us The Beatles, Elvis, and the Rolling Stones, while in Ireland the magnificent showband boom was about to explode. A young man growing up at that time, Declan was heavily influenced by these greats and had the rare opportunity to see most of the top showbands appear in his native town of Drumlish. He would cajole his mother into seeing Joe Dolan, Big Tom, Philomena Begley, The Capital Showband and many more.
From his vantage point close to the stage, he would absorb every move made by the guitarist in the bands, watching his fingers slide along the strings, hoping that one day he might be up there performing just like Dan O’Hara or Seamus McMahon.
Declan has gone on to have a super career spanning over four decades at the top of Irish country music, winning many accolades along the way and scoring countless hits. Join Declan and his super live band for a nostalgic night of music, song and laughter on the 2026 Round and Round concert tour.
