Graffiti Tongue

Christy Moore

A stark, fiercely intimate solo folk album. Just a legendary Irish voice and a masterfully played acoustic guitar tackling heavy political and personal truths.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The chilling, repetitive chant of the triangle colors in Yellow Triangle, building a quiet but devastating momentum.
The raw, vulnerable delivery on Strange Ways where the acoustic guitar drops to a whisper to address institutional betrayal.
The heartfelt, blues-tinged acoustic tribute in Rory Is Gone, celebrating Rory Gallagher with a mournful yet warm guitar performance.
