Previously billed as “Belfast’s best kept secret” Tony Kaluarachchi is one of the most interesting and talented musicians playing in Ireland today. He combines unique vocals and a mesmerizing guitar technique in a set list that spans jazz, soul, blues and Latino bossanova on jazz guitar or 12 string acoustic.
Tony has played all over Ireland and beyond as part of several notable bands but these days he generally plays solo gigs closer to home. Long term residencies include Holohan's at the Barge, the Park Avenue Hotel, Aether & Echo, Tedford's Restaurant, the Hudson Bar, On The Square Emporium & Auction, McHugh's Bar and Queen’s Bar.
There have also been recent Kaluarachchi sightings at ArtisAnn Gallery, Morrison’s Bar, The Europa Hotel, St George’s Market, The Sunflower Bar, The John Hewitt and Golden Thread Gallery. Always the real deal: when he says he plays live he means it. Tony doesn’t use backing tracks or enhancements. Instead, he entrances audiences with his virtuoso guitar licks and an unforgettable singing style.
