Caoilian Sherlock is a talented songwriter who combines elements of psychedelia and folk with impactful and insightful pop music. With over a decade of experience playing music and writing songs he has honed his craft through his involvement in various bands such as The Shaker Hymn and The Tan Jackets. Following an array of playful and infectious singles, Sherlock released his debut solo album ‘Teenage Jesus’ in 2023.
Playing guitar and writing songs since the age of fifteen, well worn through years in rock and roll bands he began playing solo shows that reflect a folkier and sparser terrain. Backed with an electric guitar, a sense of entitlement and an overly sentimental view of almost everything, his contemplative music reflects a part of his record collection that hosts Paul Simon, John Prine and more recent luminaries like Bill Ryder Jones and Angel Olsen.
