    Over the past while, I’ve been hearing from more people of Irish descent from around the world. So I’ve decided that I’ll feature some of them on The London Ear. I wasn’t 100% sure of Brian’s heritage but with a name like Mackey, I couldn’t be too far off.

    Brian Mackey‘s family went to America in the 1920’s, as many did. They settled and made their lives there. Brian is a musician and has song ‘Are You Listening?’ has had chart success in Germany recently.

    2. DJ Shadow feat Run The Jewels: Nobody Speak
    3. MNEK: At Night (I Think About You)
