Awarded the prestigious Sony Radio Award for best regional radio presenter, George has continued to combine his razor sharp wit with his natural musical talent much to the delight of countless fans throughout Ireland.

This was quickly followed by repeated sell-out productions at Belfast’s Waterfront Hall and Derry’s Rialto Entertainment Centre with the hugely popular Do You Come Here Often?  tribute to the showband era.

Most recently he has returned to his love of radio joining U105 in January 2007 and now presents his own daily afternoon show. George is also currently writing his life story.
