Andrew Gavin / Recensioner

Three years ago, Andrew Gavin decided to “take the plunge” and pursue a singing career. At just 22 years of age, and having graduated from Trinity College with a masters in philosophy in children’s literature, he decided to follow his talent, and he hasn’t looked back since. Two months ago, he was named as one of two recipients of the PWC/Wexford Festival Opera Emerging Young Artist Bursary 2016, and in March is embarking on a tour with the Opera Theatre Company, playing the role of Damon in ‘Acis & Galatea’, which will bring him back to Navan for a performance in his hometown. It was in Navan about a decade ago that he first got the bug for singing, while attending St Patrick’s Classical School.
