D. Cullen is a songwriter/musician from Dublin, Ireland. Singer and songwriter D. Cullen is following up his debut album Sing My Story, Tell My Song with the new EP Tiny.
“Tiny” began as, what the title might suggest, a small idea. I had amassed a collection of 3 or 4 short songs that I absolutely loved, but had absolutely no place on my previous album. It broke my heart that these songs hadn’t found a home, but I couldn’t think of how I’d fit one of these tiny, genre-sprawling songs on to a track listing….unless I put them all together. And so, Tiny came to be. 8 Songs, 14 Minutes, 1 Tiny EP”
D. has had his music featured on BBC Scotland, RTE Radio One, Today FM, and, not once, but twice on Ireland’s largest chat show The Late Late Show. He has supported such legendary artists as Mundy, Eddi Reader, Brian Kennedy, Bry, and many many more!
