The first step of a journey

At the launch of my new album, in the Greyhound Bar, Kilkee Co. Clare

This is the first blog post of what I hope will be a journey I can share with all that share my love of music, Irish traditions, language, history and life in general. This will be a small window into my life, my loves and my passion, and the life of a woman raised and living by on the western shores of Ireland.

I hope you will follow me on my journey and participate with your own comments and insights. I will be posting about once a week, presenting you with my thoughts and experiences. I will tell you about music, and in particular Irish traditional music; what it means, what it says and where it comes from.

There is a richness to Irish history, language, music and traditions; these are things that are close to my heart and are my passion. These are the things that led me to produce my current album, where I present a selection of songs that have meaning to me, that shaped my life and that I hope will bring happiness to yours. These are the things I will share with you on my blog, and I hope you will follow me on this journey of words.

This is the very start and the very first step of a new journey.
