Ko Damien Rice he kaiwaiata Irish, he kaitito waiata, he kaiwaiata, he kaihanga rekoata. I timata a Rice i tana mahi puoro hei mema mo te roopu toka 1990s Juniper, i hainatia ki PolyGram Records i te tau 1997.
He iti te angitu o te roopu me etahi tangata takitahi, engari ko te pukaemi kua whakamaheretia i ahu mai i runga i te kaupapa here a te kamupene rekoata, kaore he mea i puta i te mutunga.
Whai muri i tana wehenga atu i te roopu, ka mahi ia hei kaiahuwhenua i Tuscany, ka mahi pakihi puta noa i Uropi i mua i tana hokinga mai ki Ireland i te tau 2001 me te tiimata i te mahi puoro takitahi me te toenga o te roopu ka riro ko Bell X1.
I te tau 2002, i eke tana pukaemi tuatahi a O ki te Nama 8 i te UK Albums Chart, i toa i te Tohu Waiata Waiata Poto, a, i hangaia e toru nga kaiwaiata 30 o runga i te UK.
I tukuna e Rice tana kopae tuarua 9 i te tau 2006, a kua puta ana waiata ki nga kiriata maha me nga whakaaturanga pouaka whakaata.
Whai muri i te waru tau i noho tahi ai, ka tukuna e Rice tana pukaemi studio tuatoru My Favorite Faded Fantasy i te Oketopa 31, 2014.
Ko nga mahi whaiaro a Rice ko nga koha waiata ki nga kaupapa atawhai penei i nga Waiata mo Tibet, te Whakatairanga Whakaaetanga me te Kaupapa Enough.
Te ora moata o DAMIEN RICE me Juniper
I whanau a Damien Rice i te Hakihea 7, 1973 i Celbridge (Ireland). Ko George raua ko Maureen Rice ona matua. I hanga e ia te roopu toka a Juniper me Paul Noonan, Dominic Philips, David Geraghty me Brian Crosby i te tau 1991.

I haere tonu te roopu (i Straffan, County Kildare) ki te haereere me te haina i tetahi mahi e ono album me PolyGram. Ko a raatau kaupapa rekoata i whanau mai i a Weatherman me The World Is Dead i whiwhi arotake pai. I hopukina ano engari kaore i tukuna a Arero.
Whai muri i tana whakatutuki i ana whainga puoro me Juniper, ka pouri a Rice ki nga whakararu toi e hiahiatia ana e te tapanga rekoata, a, i wehe atu ia i te roopu i te tau 1998.
I neke a Raihi ki Tuscany (Itari) ka mahi paamu mo etahi wa i mua i te hokinga mai ki Ireland. I hoki mai ano a Rice mo te wa tuarua, ka hoatu e Rice he rekoata whakaatu ki tana whanaunga, te kaihanga waiata a David Arnold, katahi ka koha ki a Rice he whare pukoro.
