Early life
Eoin French grew up on the northside of Cork. He trained as an architect and lectured in architecture at University College Cork.[3] He was a member of band Hush War Cry, and also studied at Cork School of Music.[4] His stage name is in reference to the mythical Talos, a giant automaton made of bronze that protected Crete.[5]
Career
Talos began his career in 2013. His first album, Wild Alee, was nominated for the Choice Music Prize, and The Irish Times awarded it four stars, calling it "a spectacularly assured debut deserving of a wide audience."[6] His second album was released in 2019.[7]
