Interview: Other Voices (RTE)

Quote from the Irish Times, February 17th, 2003 in an article about RTE’s new series “Other Voices: Songs From a Room”. Damien’s performance will be broadcast on Network 2 on Tuesday March 4th at 9PM.
“Sometimes you get to a point where you have a taste of the record company, hype-hype-hype thing,” he says, “but while I was excited at the start, it got to a point where I hated it. Playing to large audiences is not what makes me happy; seeing my name in a paper or in the charts doesn’t really do anything for me. Money doesn’t make me happy; the success thing doesn’t make me happy. What makes it for me is walking on stage feeling like I want to be there and starting a song and getting lost in it. That’s what Dingle was about.”
