"The poems are dense, lusty in the old sense of the word—in their intentness on the uniqueness of each contemplated experience. "

"McCarthy has read his poetry around the world, from Los Angeles to Australia, and is a captivating performer who has on occasion – and I’ve witnessed this – woken the otherwise dead with his words".  Kevin Higgins

​Neil McCarthy: Live in the Laden. Recorded live in Verein 08 Vienna.

© 2013 Label08/Preiser Records

On a chilly night in February 2012, I had the wonderful chance to stand and deliver poems in the intimate and welcoming setting of Verein 08. I was joined by Bryan Benner and Ultan Conlon, who both contributed music to the album, as well a forty-strong crowd of enthusiasts who applauded on cue, laughed in the right places, and waved their hands in the air when we had passed our curfew for clapping! This is the result. I hope you like it.
