I'm a minimalist/ambient piano composer from the west of Ireland. I've been writing minimalist/ambient pieces for piano since I was a teenager. Most of my earlier music was written on an eighty year old 'Goetze' upright piano (featured in the video 'The Front') which sits in the lobby of an old hotel. I now also use a Roland RD-700GX.

My compositions draw upon elements of the traditional, classical,experimental, rock,idm and minimalist genre's and is inspired mostly by life in the West of Ireland. Major musical influences include Aphex Twin, Chopin and Tool.

I was selected to play at HWCH 2010, HWCH 2011, Temple House festival 2010, The Flat Lakes festival 2011 and Electric Picnic 2011.

My live performances are played to a backdrop of synchronized original video by David Lenehan. There are three music video's on my youtube channel (www.youtube.com/conorwalshpiano) all by David Lenehan. 'The Front' was shortlisted in the music video category of this years Cork fringe film festival.

'The Front' was also selected for the BBC Music Video Festival 2011.

My music was used in the feature length documentary 'Apples of the Golan' (released March 2012).Here is a link to the trailer. - http://vimeo.com/36979514
