Was such a pleasure to perform at the celebration mass for Fr. Malachy yesterday evening in Grange church, and to perform a duet with the stunning voice of Róisin Bradley!!! So happy for Fr. Malachy who was made a Canon, as were the hundreds of people who attended. Glorious evening 🩷

Last day to order prints in time for Father's Day in Ireland on www.ciaraioch.com/artprints Get your dad something he'll look at with mild confusion, say "oh, that's nice" and place in the back of a press somewhere, never to be seen again.
