Rice from the ground up…
Irish folk singer, Damien Rice had a rough start in the music business. In 1991, he helped formed a band called Juniper. In 1998, Rice was disenchanted with the band, and left to pursue his solo career in Italy. The band regained composure, and has since changed their name to Bell X1.
Rice’s first album O was released in 2002. Since then, he has successfully released four more: B-Sides (2004), 9 (2006), Live at Fingerprints Warts & All (2007), and Live From the Union Chapel (2007).
His success continues today, as he is set to play in his native country of Ireland from June 13-15, and in Iceland in late July.
Summer tour dates:
June 13-15—Dublin, Ireland @ Royal Hosp Kilmainham.
July 11—Traena, Norway @ Traena Festival
July 26—Borgarfjordur, Iceland @ Eystri Festival
