Welcome

Welcome to Lightning Bird Records - the website set up by Con Meehan to promote his own music. Known as the 'Acoustic Mercenary' from his Dublin days, Con celebrated the release of Intelligence Under Pressure, his first album, in December 2003. He is currently rehearsing the songs for his second album, The Quality of Mercy, which is scheduled for completion by late summer of 2010.

For occasional gigs, Con is working as a duo with Slovak keyboardist Igor Ruman.
