ABE SOARE

Little Whelan’s • Sun 9th June 2024


ADT (Alan Daniel Tobin) is a member of Irish band LOWmountain and honorary member of the legendary Interference. His two solo albums – Volume I & II – were recorded remotely in his garden cabin, and produced by multi-instrumentalist, Justin Grounds , from a little room overlooking the beautiful town of Clonakilty, West Cork.

Lives in Carrigaline with his wife, Catherine, and three daughters, Ada Rose, Evie May and Eliza Jean. He also works as a graphic designer, amateur film-maker and photographer.

ADT flexes between the sadness and delight of every day life. He paints the darkness with atmospheric soundscapes and simple words. Hugely influenced by the Atlantic Ocean, the West Cork landscape and his family, he has a minor obsession with lighthouses.
