Speaking of the signing, Fiona Prine President of Oh Boy said:
Oh Boy Records continues to be the home label for singer songwriters who are dedicated to their craft. The body of work created by my husband, John Prine, remains our North Star when making decisions about the artists we bring onto our label. Mick Flannery is arguably one of the best songwriters to emerge from Ireland's long and storied history of writers, poets and musicians. I couldn't be more delighted to welcome Mick, as the first international signing, to our Oh Boy Records family. John was proud to be part of the music community on Ireland's western coast and I know he would be proud of this new partnership with Mick and his team.

Mick Flannery has a voice for the ages, a complete Master of his craft cited by Clash Magazine, whilst The Sunday Times said he “conjures up exquisite story-telling. His last album in 2021 consisted of a collection of duets with up and coming Irish artist Susan O'Neill. American Songwriter called In The Game a Sorrowful Masterpiece. The record was nominated for the Choice Music Prize, and won the RTE Radio 1 song of the year two years in a row for tracks Baby Talk and Chain Reaction. The album was the biggest selling independent record in Ireland in 2021.

Mick Flannery's songs are fluent in expressing layered aspects of the human condition, its flaws, triumphs, and general uncertainty. His live shows are renowned for his self-deprecating humor, audience engagement and the ability to bring people on a journey of both heartbreak and joy, often in the same instance.
