It was the summer of 2007. In the middle of The Netherlands. Arnhem to be precise. That’s where our two protagonists met. That fateful meeting turned into a love story across two continents and eventually lead to the formation of The O’Deadlys, considered by many to be Ontario’s top Celtic band. 

Led by Ayron Mortley (vocals & guitar) and Lindsey O’Connell (vocals, accordion, harmonica & tin whistles), the band stretches as far as a 6-piece with fiddle, sax & flute, bass, and drums. 

In addition to The O’Deadlys, Lindsey, and Ayron are often hired as side musicians to record or perform with other musicians including; Kevin Quain & the Mad Bastards, Wild Strawberries, The Mahones, Ben Sures, Taxi Chain/Urban Highlanders, The Buccaneers, Airs & Graces and Walter Moffat. They have been lucky enough to share the stage with both Alan Doyle and Sean McCann (of Great Big Sea) and John McDermott. 

Notable recent gigs include; the Ireland Fund of Canada’s Luncheon, the St. Patrick’s Parade Society’s Grand Marshal’s Ball, the Canada Games 2022, and Toronto’s Celtic Island Music Festival.

AYRON MORTLEY – VOCALS & GUITAR

Fun Fact: Ayron also teaches guitar, bass, mandolin, tenor & 5-string banjo, piano, and drum lessons online. For the few rare nights a week, he’s not on the stage, he can be found on the ice where he’s slightly less professional.

LINDSEY O’CONNELL – VOCALS, ACCORDION, HARMONICA, & TIN WHISTLES

Fun Fact: Aside from playing music professionally, Lindsey is a real-life Snow White who can make friends with practically any wild animal. WARNING: she should not be disturbed while reading a good book.

JIM BISH - VOCALS, TENOR SAXOPHONE & FLUTE

Fun Fact: Jim has played music professionally all over the world; from Montreal to Memphis to Mogadishu. He makes beautiful music out of anything and everything, including the kitchen sink.

Bradley Hale grew up in small town Ontario in and around the town of Elmira. Spend anytime there and you’re bound to hear the sweet sounds of country music pumping from pickup trucks and tractors, over speakers at a backyard barbecue, or even from the hockey change room. Combine that with a rich family history of both farming and music, and you get an artist that’s steeped in country roads and country music.

Bradley learned to play and sing at a young age. Influenced by Eric Church, Zach Bryan and Riley Green, combined with a love of John Mayer, he has crafted a sound that is familiar yet completely unique.

These rich influences are weaved together with his own experiences and strong hometown, backroads style finding their way into his songwriting, co-writing, and recording. With his big warm baritone country voice Bradley delivers heart-rendering ballads as well as driving country rockers.
Bradley earned a spot in this years highly coveted Boots and Hearts Emerging Artist show case as well as opening for Cooper Alan at the Kee to Bala this summer. He adds this to his resume of notable live performances including several shows with Owen Riegling as well opening spots for James Barker Band, Steven Lee Olsen, Jason Blaine and others.

In Bradley’s first 10 months of releasing music he has garnered the attention of notable Apple Music editorial playlists “Canada’s Country Best of 2024” end of year playlist, “Country Hits Unplugged”, “New in Country”, “Canada’s Country”, “Country Risers” and “Country Lovin” while accumulating over 250K streams across platforms Bradley’s dream is to bring his heartfelt songs and love of country music to audiences here and everywhere.
