Quite a number of songs on ‘The Essential Collection’ are taken from his album ‘A Better Man’. It’s hard to believe, listening to the songs, that they originally were released in 1996, they sound so fresh with their new 2016 sound.


A Better Man’ was certified 3 X Platinum in Ireland, held the #1 slot in the Irish charts for weeks and led to numerous sell out tours of Ireland including a run of 6 nights at Dublin’s Olympia Theatre, then 2 sold out shows at the then Point Theatre now called the 3Arena. Brian also celebrated his 50th birthday in October in style with a show at Dublin’s Vicar Street (October 13th) where he performed the entire 'A Better Man' album from start to finish, marking the 20th anniversary of its release. It was some party with lots to celebrate!
