About the Artist

Corneilius is a singer/songwriter, an accomplished guitarist, a multi instrumentalist and amazing performer. Cornelius is a people's musician. Corneilius is a respected live artiste who has been enthralling and inspiring underground audiences for more than three decades in the UK, now currently based in The Republic of Ireland. Corneilius's honest, warm insightful and inspiring hearty lyrics are woven into catchy songs, with memorable chorus lines which many people who have seen him perform claim are pleasing earworms of delight and inspiration that linger, often to pop up unexpectedly and always welcome. Listen to the tracks posted here, all demos, since Cornelius has never produced music for sales - and try to get to one of his gigs if you can. There's a few posted to his YouTube page, and he hosts a daily live stream from Facebook, Monday to Friday 9am -10 am GMT. Lyrically potent, his ability as a wordsmith is core to his craft and his knowledge of life is deep. His passion for people, real people living as we do in this messy society with the odds often against us, is palpable in every word, every sentence. Due to a happy accident of birth, genetics and luck his natural voice is warm, resonant, penetrating. Due to his life experience his heart is big, his world view radical. Some of his songs challenge the status quo in unexpected manner. Others reaffirm the best in humanity. Then there's a few that will bring laughter and joyous rebellious sentiments to the fore. Corneilius performs solo, with a loop station. Cornelius is a highly entertaining one man band, with occasional drop in friends.
