As If I Always Knew
Under the Sun at St. Fin Barre's Cathedral

As If I Always Knew

Cian Sweeney

  • Music
← back to all events
  • Music

Producer and pianist Cian Sweeney presents an intimate new project, As If I Always Knew, showcasing unedited, live piano improvisations.

Marking a departure from the world of producing he has long worked in and returning to the instrument he grew up with, this series of improvised, spontaneous piano pieces performed live and without rehearsal will be a deeply personal offering, rooted in his late-night improvisations and a desire to shed industry pressures.

Cian Sweeney is a session pianist and producer who has worked with artists as diverse as Ryan Mack, Robert Grace, Shiv, Le Boom, QBanaa, Joshua Burnside, Ciaran Lavery, Orla Gartland, Toucan & many more. His collaborative project, 1000 Beasts, has amassed over 13 million streams to date.
