Event information

We’re delighted to be helping Cavan Moran release his debut album, Forever On The Road/Forever At Home!

Cavan Moran is a singer-songwriter from Manchester. He has already graced some of the world’s finest stages, including London’s Union Chapel, New York’s Knitting Factory and La Flèche D’Or in Paris – and the songs he writes are built to fill such stunning spaces.

His first EP, Five Simple Crimes, released in the autumn of 2013, gave more than a hint of what was to come. As the Manchester Evening News wrote: ‘You are instantly struck by the beauty and the subtlety of his arrangements, the judicious sprinklings of harmonica, cello and female backing vocals all adding to the heart string-tugging effect.’

Moran considers France to be his second home and tours there on at least a bi-annual basis. It was therefore apt that in September 2014, he signed to the French label Celebration Days Records, who will be releasing his debut album Forever On The Road/Forever At Home in April 2016.

In February of 2015, Moran released Lonely Rival on 7” backed by Pricked To A Pattern on his own C33 Records label, which was included in Piccadilly Records’ Staff Picks. The album promises to be just as breathtaking.
