"I lived in a rented house with a rented companion, both of us living rented lives."

Stuck in a broken relationship and a dead end job, a young man leaves Ireland and heads to New York to try to make it as a musician. What follows is at once a story about growing up in Ireland in the late 80s and 90s; a love letter to New York; and a testament to the power of music and the songs we carry with us throughout our lives.
