Musically Dominic followed his dream and fronted a variety of local bands including his own group, The Melody Boys. The band soon became popular favourites on the live circuit scene, catering for all tastes with their wide range of songs featuring rock, pop, rhythm and blues, Irish ballads and country songs.  After several years of performing and honing his talents Dominic was signed to one of Ireland and the UK’s leading independent labels who he felt had his best interests at heart and guaranteed the total support and commitment necessary to take the next step on his road to stardom. The first fruits of this new relationship came with the release of a four track EP called The Green Hills Are Rolling Still followed by his debut Ritz album Try A Little Kindness.  Further albums followed and, now established as an artist in his own right and headlining his own tours, Dominic not only hosted his own television series, but also picked up the prestigious BBC Entertainment Media Of The Year Award for Easy Listening/Country Music.

Dominic Kirwan enjoys superstar status today thanks to chart-topping albums and phenomenally successful concert tours, but he will be the first to admit that his Irish roots and the strong musical influences of those early years can still be seen prominently in his live shows.

Success will never spoil this mild-mannered star who places great value on the opinions of his countless fans. He fondly recalls growing up in Omagh in a home full of laughter, music and traditional dancing. Dominic’s undoubted talent as a dancer was recognised by the prestigious Seamus Kerrigan School of Irish Dancing and these lessons soon paid off when Dominic began winning competitions both at home and abroad.
