Hello, I'm Cormac, I'm 14 and I like to do a bit of singing! In 2020, when I was 11, it was lockdown, I couldn't visit my family in Northern Ireland, so my Mum posted videos on YouTube instead. One day, a record label got in touch, that was a nice surprise! I got to record one album. 'Hear My Voice' was released on Decca Records in December 2020.
Since the album I have released 9 new songs as an independent artist and I will be releasing 6 more this year. FOLLOW ME and SUBSCRIBE to my newsletter if you'd like to be kept up to date. I hope you enjoy.
2023 might just be the best year yet. Make sure you FOLLOW ME me on social media and SUBSCRIBE to my newsletter so you easily keep up with all that's going on.
Thank you to everyone for supporting me, I couldn't do it without you.
2022 was far from dull either! I auditioned for 'Britain's Got Talent' at The London Palladium. I nearly made it the semi-final, I was a reserve, never mind! The best was yet to come. With thanks to The Salvation Army, I performed at their carol concert, live at London's iconic Royal Albert Hall.
2021 was busy too. Lockdown was over, it was good - bye to Decca but I really loved recording songs. Sooooooooo...... with lots of help from my Mum and Dad, I went back to the studio, as an independent artist this time and it was brilliant. We recorded 'EMPTY CHAIRS at EMPTY TABLES' from the musical 'Les Miserables' this went viral and now has over 6 million views, I really wasn't expecting that! We recorded 3 more songs and I also made it to the final of 'BBC Young Chorister of the Year'
And last but by no means least, a BIG shout out to pianist and producer, Dominic Ferris and producer and sound / mix engineer Simon Hanhart, who believed in me and gave me and my Mum and Dad the confidence to record all of the songs since the album in 2020 without the backing of a record label.
When I went to Prodigy Camp in America last year I met some truly wonderful, inspirational people. When we are there, part of what we do, is to learn all about the art of telling stories. Encouraged by Camp Director, Rick Stevenson, I was encouraged to start with my own! That felt a bit funny at first, I honestly didn't think I had a story to tell but when we started to chat about it, I realised, that maybe I did have one after all.
A Borrowed Gift is a very personal video, there's definitely some singing and DEFINITELY a new song that you haven't heard me sing before and just to keep it interesting, it's in Italian too .... I really hope you enjoy.
Here's a few of my videos, head on over to my YouTube channel, there are lots more there too.
In a way it's a little bit sad that 2023 will see me say goodbye to my very special treble voice but I'm excited about my changing voice too and I definitely see it as a new beginning and not the end. I'm sure there will be a few wobbles and cracks along the way but I'll do my best, I'll keep calm and I'll carry on.
