Paul Dempsey

"It is a weapon sure to strike at the heart of any listener."

"The spectacular range of Dempsey's was voice on full display, earning him the most ecstatic applause of the evening."

"Despite various teething issues, Skyfields ticked many of the boxes required for a successful festival."

"Dempsey dedicates a stirring and sinister version of Man Of The Moment to Cardinal George Pell. 'Fuck that guy. Here's another song.'"

"Tonight was much more about finding your new favourite rather than hearing your old one."

"Dempsey doesn't ever need to play with a backing band and, in fact, almost certainly shouldn't."

"It's this self-exposure that's really really interesting, and that offers a sense of potential in this space/format in future."

"He received applause in response to telling everyone talking to shut the fuck up"
