The following testimonial gives a hint as to his quality.
It was my pleasure to help arrange Anthony John Clarke’s visit to the United States last year. Often considered to be Ireland’s best kept secret, Anthony John always makes a lasting impression on audiences with his unique blend of music and humor. There was an expectant buzz in the air as we awaited his arrival, but nothing could have prepared us for the combination of insightful lyrics, beautiful melodies and rib-tickling humor that we encountered. As we sat and listened to the unending stream of 'hits’, we laughed, sang along and enjoyed. An Acquaintance of Mine? No. A friend of mine. And one secret I definitely will not be keeping.Kevin Wilson - North Carolina
