A Bit More About Richard Farrell
Richard has been walking the path of music, playing extensively in Ireland until his departure to Denmark in 2015. Since then he has won 3 Danish Music Awards for Blues.
Richard has been writing, recording and singing for musicians and producers from all around the world under his own name and under the moniker, J Fitz. He has released songs through Universal Music, Deepvisionz Recordings and MoodFunk Records and had highly successful releases with his collaborations, some tracks have streams over 10 million on Youtube and Spotify.
Richard is very open in his approach to music. His foundation is in folk, soul and blues and his journey has also led him to more modern sounds including house and electronica.
Richard Farrell released his EP, 'Violet Fire', in the spring of 2022. This EP is followed by his 2nd album, 'Bathing In Cold Water'. This is his 2nd solo album since his debut album, 'Light at Sea', in 2012.
'Bathing In Cold Water' has a folk, blues and jazz foundation spiced with lots of soul. Richard plays with some of Denmark’s finest musician on his new LP;
Lars Emil Riis Madsen on keys, Spencer Gross on double bass and Lars Heiberg Andersen on drums.
2023 and 2024 will bring lots more collaborations and more music from his own catalogue, Trainman Blues and his folk project, Buds.
