Irish Musicians
Damien Rice
Born on December 7, 1973, Irish singer-songwriter and musician Damien Rice is adept at playing the guitar, drums and piano, as well as both the cello and violin. In the 1990s, Rice was a member of the group Juniper, although after releasing two singles with them, he departed to pursue a solo career. He busked his way around Europe before returning to Ireland, where he landed a contract. Rice released his debut solo album in February 2002, which peaked at #8 on the UK chart and produced two Top 30 singles, "Cannonball" and "Volcano". In April 2009, the Irish Times placed Rice at number 34 in a list of the "The Best 50 Irish Acts Right Now."
