Eoghan O’Sullivan grew up in a musical family in Mitchelstown, County Cork. He was taught to play press and draw style accordion by his father. Initially it was the flute which attracted him most, but the during the eighties the accordion became his dominant instrument. In his later teens, he became intoxicated by the accordion styles of the great press. He changed his whole technique in order to achieve a punchier and more consistent rhythm. He has recorded two albums with Gerry Harrington. Eoghan lives and teaches music in Mitchelstown.
