Born in Sligo, Ireland, this brooding twenty something singer of delicately crafted etherealism has so far gathered momentum on France. His single "
The Hunchback Of San Francisco" lifted from self titled debut album, won him acclaim there as did its follow up "Genevieve". His main influences are troubadours: Leonard Cohen, Scott Walker, Nick Drake and David Sylvian; whose brother Steve Jansen contributed to Blake's second album
Still Life released on French label Naive last year. At the time of writing, Blake is preparing for a short tour of France, Belgium and Spain.
