John Doyle, known by his stage name Amo, is a high-energy performer from County Roscommon, Ireland, now based in New York City. He first built a devoted following in northwest Ireland before New York bar owners began taking notice, eventually drawing him into the heart of the city’s live music scene.

Praised by The Irish Voice for his dynamic live shows, Amo has become a fixture in Irish bars, clubs, and private events from Times Square to venues up and down the East Coast. In 2022, he took his sound overseas, turning a one-month residency in the Canary Islands into a full year-long run.

Over the past two winters, Amo has taken Florida by storm, touring relentlessly and building a loyal following across the state. While his bar and club performances remain packed, growing demand for private parties, upscale events, and exclusive bookings has made Amo one of the most sought-after solo acts in New York, Florida, and beyond.

Known for breathing new life into timeless classics by Tom Petty, U2, The Killers, Neil Young, the Eagles, and more, Amo blends iconic songwriting with his own distinctive style. By fusing Irish ballads, modern rhythms, and unconventional techniques, he delivers the energy of a full band using only a guitar, a drum machine, and sheer presence. With two acclaimed albums and an unwavering commitment to his craft, Amo doesn’t just play shows, he creates nights people remember.

If you want it sharper for a private-events brochure or dialed slightly back for bar owners, say the word and I’ll tune it.
