My next single "The Birthing House" arrives next week. It's a weird little tune, folky, trady, singer songwritery, even a little bit metaly 🤘 It features a monochord, whistling, and the auras of West Cork and West Donegal where most of the lyrics sprung from! distrokid.com/hyperfollow/...

I'm honoured to be sharing verse in the next issue of Airmid's Journal. I found myself writing about my lost tongue, diasporic dislocation and perspective breakthroughs. In an issue bursting with Gaeilge, it was a strange gift to find freedom to express layers of myself that stretch beyond Éireann.

Feels expansive to finally have this song out in the world. Burn is my first solo single in a little under 10 years! I have a lot to say after a decade of hush, but I'm passing the mic to my 17 year old self who wrote this song before I truly get started 🎙️🐦‍🔥 youtu.be/NBoLLfZ5gBc?...

When I was about 17 I wrote a song that I knew was much bigger than the years I had to show for it. When I was 21 I walked away from music for what I thought was forever. Tonight I'm 29 and that song, Burn, will debut on RTÉ Radio 1, Folk on One at 10pm - my first single in 10 years.

Go hálainn, bheinn fíor shásta amhránaíocht ar an sean-nós a roinnt má tá suim ag éinne i gciorcal amhránaíochta, nó fiú labhairt faoi mo chuid ceoil nua-aimsearthachta amanoanseo.bandcamp.com/album/thread

Hi a Lorna, beidh mé i Welly ar feadh seachtaine i lár mí Eanáir. An bhfuil aon phlean chun PUG a bheith agaibh timpeall na dtréimhsí sin?

I spent Samhain/ Halloween week playing An Chailleach on the streets of Kerry in a bilingual street spectacle show with singing, dancing, fire, spoken word and SFX. It's been hard to come down.. quite literally.. I didn't know what a scissor lift was until tech rehearsal.

For decades we have fought to have sanctions imposed on Israel for their apartheid and genocide but the Irish government refuses to act.

I'm visiting South Armagh and Slieve Gullion for the first time this week. I'll be up to learn some sean-nós tunes from the rich Oriel Tradition/ Traidisiún Airgíalla but would love some advice on what to see, best pint, best walking trail etc. if this reaches anyone in Ard Mhaca Theas 🌀
