Cork's vibrant music scene welcomes a rising star as hip hop artist jarjarjr (aka Robert O’
Halloran) unveils his debut album, a masterful blend of introspection, rhythm, raw talent and
buoyant attitude. Drawing from a diverse range of influences and experiences, jarjarjr’s ‘Catch
The Dusk’ will captivate audiences with its palpable depth and groovy passion. Think 1960’s
Manhattan cocktail party, but with a twist of Cork pizazz.
The album ‘Catch The Dusk’ is the culmination of a decades’ worth of dedication and growth
which aims to inspire listeners both figuratively and sonically. The album wows visually too, with
David Willis, Brownsauce and Ben Kavanagh directed music videos.
After a major change in his life, jarjarjr found solace behind the wheel of a Toyota Yaris,
heuristically muttering affirmations that would eventually become the opening lines of his first
song: "North Face Duffel Bag." Unbeknownst to him, it marked the beginning of a four-year
journey. With 13 tracks, jarjarjr hopes the album will offer solace to those facing challenges.
jarjarjr explains, "I hope this album gives a bit of hope to some lonely lady or lost fella out there.
To show someone who’s faced with the task of starting over that there’s a light at the end of the
tunnel."
With two massively successful Guinness Cork Jazz festivals under his belt, jarjarjr’s live
ensemble has become a frenetic and sophisticated jazz rap tour de force.
