Mick Hanly

Mick Hanly is one of Ireland's finest singer/songwriters and is best known for his song 'Past the Point of Rescue' made famous by Hal Ketchum in the USA and Mary Black in Ireland. Mick has been singing and writing since the 1970's, which included a time as lead singer with "Moving Hearts".

Ireland has produced a fair share of accomplished songwriters but only a handful can match Mick Hanly when it comes to pure songwriting craft. Though often cast in a country music mould, his work incorporates a powerful cogency of expression and emotion which can move - sometimes even startle.
