LIMERICK composer/producer Daragh Dukes is releasing new music as Headgear.
The musician has a long history in Limrock, from the early days with They Do It With Mirrors (Setanta Records) to Headgear and Asylum Speakers on the Martha Dig Music label. He also produced ‘Sinners and Lost Souls’, the critically acclaimed sophomore album from Sons of Southern Ulster and was part of the team that created the recent RTE Radio One documentary Digging For Fire, a memoir of his time in Limerick and London with They Do It With Mirrors.
Under the moniker Headgear, Daragh will release a series of tracks in the coming months starting with Omphalos Pt. 1.
The track is a re-work of a former project that the producer shelved.
“I completely melted my head back in 2018 working and overworking the Asylum Speakers tracks and ended up deleting the rest of the album I was working on for my own sanity.
Last year I started the album again with my Headgear attitude on and it’s been a way
easier and just flowed.”
Omphalos Pt. 1 features Pat Shortt on saxophone and is available to buy and stream
