David Geraghty - Kill All Your Darlings

November 26th, 2007

There seems to be a wealth of talent within the ranks of BellX1. On one side we have the electro-pop Tim O’. Donovan a.k.a Neosupervital. On the other we have the melancholic charm of David Geraghty. Where Neosupervital want make you dance in your sharp suits and high heels, David wants you to pull up a stool beside the bar and tell you stories of love lost, gained and lost again.

Kill All Your Darlings is story of life and love wrapped cosily in lush layers of piano and strings. Songs such as “Back Seat” are earnest yet mournful. There are some cheerful songs like “Fear To The Hitcher”, however this is the sound of a man with a heavy heart.

David Geraghty has created an album full of heart and soul with a delicate layer of hope. Coupled with his velvety husky voice, Kill All Your Darlings is a little gem albeit a fragile one. So pull up that stool and listen to the stories which David has
to sing.
