Personal Life
Flannery's sister Sarah is a past winner of the Esat Young Scientist Exhibition. His mother's family live in Coolroe near Killarney.
Flannery is known to be a shy individual. He has admitted experiencing strong stage fright before performances. He does not often use a computer, preferring instead to ask others to update his Facebook and MySpace accounts, although this leaves him with "really sick" feelings when people come to him at his shows to thank him for replying to their messages.
Flannery tends to socialise with his fellow stonemasons instead of with other singer-songwriters. They prefer to talk about sex instead of music. He also enjoys playing poker. He has admitted: "I'm a dour bollocks. I wouldn't be the life and soul of any party. I'd be sitting in the corner".
