Les is the lead singer and songwriter of the much-loved Dublin band The Wilde

Oscars who released an album (Fish) as well as two EPs (Falling Down,

Newspaper) during the 1990s, Les subsequently branched out on his

own, releasing two solo albums, Breathe in 1999 and Plan B...Again in

2004.

20 Greenlea Road is an album which examines Les’ family history- half

Catholic, descended from the great harpist O’Carolyn, and hailing from

Kilmainhamwood, while his father’s side were Jewish emigrees fleeing

persecution from Russia and Poland at the end of the 19th century, and

arriving in Dublin (via London) during WW2. The title comes from the

street his grandparents lived in, in Terenure, Dublin.

Working in separate studios in 2 different countries, he wrote and recorded the album with his friend, sometime band member Joe Chester.
