About Jody Trehy

JODY TREHY- bio

'Jody Trehy is an Irish soul poet in the tradition that produced Van Morrison and Paul Brady but with an added flavour of European theatre that hints at Bertolt Brecht and Jacques Brel … a talent who has much more to offer… Herald, Scotland

‘Cracking good songs in the style of Brecht, Bowie, Bernelle and Brel’ Irish Times

‘Great songs… lovely Celtic, biting satire…’ Janice Forsyth Show, BBC Scotland


Jody Trehy has been writing and performing inimitable folk-rock songs in Ireland and the UK for the past few years. A performer of singular wit and style, he brings an unconventional and dramatic voice to the singer-songwriter scene blending a dynamic mix of musical and theatrical styles in tune with poetic lyrics, infectious, soulful melodies and socially engaging subject matter,

Jody recently returned from the Edinburgh and Brighton Fringe Festivals with an array of rave reviews and was shortlisted for the Brighton Fringe Award For Excellence for his show Involuntary Noises, the songs of Jody Trehy. He has also spent much of the year touring Ireland with a sublime outfit of international musicians to coincide with the 2016 release of his current album: Involuntary Noises.

On record, Jody has produced two well-received EPs: Secret Rose and Presence and one full album: Promise. In 2009, He was commissioned to write songs for the Irish hit comedy: Macbecks, which ran in the Olympia Theatre, Dublin and the Cork Opera House. He has also written a musical satire: Eejit Of Love, which was produced and broadcast by RTE in 2012/2013 and ran to considerable critical acclaim in the Edinburgh Fringe 2015. 2017 will see him developing lyrics and music for a new musical adaptation of an old anti-war film entitled: The Boy With Green Hair, in collaboration with award-winning director: Mick Gordon.
