Deadeye Foggarty plays acoustic guitar and weaves song stories filled with hints of political activism, personal observations of significant people he's encountered, and the state of life in general. He is not locked into any one genre, his originals range from folk to rock and everything inbetween. He also enjoys finding unusual songs and rearranging them into unique covers.
Short Bio:
Deadeye Foggarty is a songwriter who brings an eclectic blend of acoustic music to the stage. His performances feature offerings from traditional folk and roots music to the work of contemporary singer/songwriters in addition to his own original compositions.
In RL, Deadeye first started playing guitar and keyboards back in High School. He gigged around the midwest in assorted R&B bands as well as playing music in the Wisconsin-based acoustic music duo known as "Woodenships" in the early seventies. He then relocated to the Twin Cities (Minneapolis/St. Paul, MN) where he worked in professional theater for a decade and a half. Followed by more than a decade working in the computer industry as a systems analyst and consultant.
Now he's back to his music and loving it! His style is very eclectic and includes elements from folk, acoustic rock, blues, calypso, country and Tin Pan Alley novelty songs. His influences include: Townes Van Zandt, Steve Earle, Son House, Bob Brozman and and too many others to name here.
Deadeye has an established musical presence in SL and is known for his soulful voice and his
exceptional guitar playing as well as his vast repetoire of unique and thought provoking originals.
Deadeye believes SL is a great place for singer/songwriters to present their wares and he looks forward to sharing his songs with the good folks here in SecondLife.
