About

Some of Danny Carroll's song-writing starts with an essay, he tells Martin Cook, in this month's Dublin music podcast. That's to get his thoughts straight. Then, he'll simmer that down into the snarky commentary on modern life that runs through the songs of Shrug Life.  You can hear him perform and talk about some of those tracks here and how his music has evolved to broadened – with tracks inspired by how political systems are reflected in mundane everyday choices, to living with anxiety.
