In 2006 Neill was the winner of The World Bodhr�n Championships, held in Milltown, County Kerry.
Throughout the early years of the new millennium, Neill toured with the Gavin Whelan band around Europe and one memorable tour in the Middle East.
Neill was also a frequent guest with Slide, one of the most exciting Irish traditional music bands of today.
In 2006 Neill was the inaugural winner of The World Bodhr�n Championships (senior), held in Milltown, County Kerry. This important win gained Neill respect as a bodhr�n player not only in Ireland but internationally. Neill's youngest brother Conor followed in his footsteps by winning the World Bodhr�n Championships in both 2007 and 2008.
To date Neill can be seen playing around the Dublin traditional music circuit and most recently has had the privilege to play with the Damien Dempsey band on the Irish and UK legs of his 2008 tour.
