Dominic Mulvany (born 1956) is a singer-songwriter from Dublin who has released a number of singles and albums, mainly via his 'Kish' record label, since the 1980s.

Contents

His career commenced with the release of "In The City / Your Smile is on My Mind" in 1981 (on Kish). With 'Ibiza', his follow-up single (released on Vixen records), he attained very large amounts of airplay in Ireland; this in turn led to several high-profile TV appearances (including RTÉ's Kenny Live show and Nighthawks).

Further singles followed, including one produced by Arsenal F.C. and Irish International football player John Devine: "Travelling People". [1]

Mulvany has released three albums: Stranger on My Highway (1985), Vagabond Moon (1990) and Diving for Pearls (2004). The last of these was produced by Irish singer-songwriter Chris Singleton, whom Mulvany taught piano. Mulvany also engineered some of Chris Singleton's early material – an album called 'Start'.
