As you may know I did a residency in the Ionad san Gaeltacht Mhúscraí in Cork ❤ it was enriching, educating, energising, and I came away with a beautiful new collection of songs. Over the course of 10 immersive on-site days, we explored the local history and mythology of

Gaeltacht Mhúscraí focusing on Baile Mhúirne's beloved goddess and saint Gobnait, and the curse of the "cold, long and masculine" River Sullane that runs through the town. These works, a celebration of local history and folklore, are a fusion of past and present styles of

music and music-making, incorporating the Irish language.
This new music was created as part of the RESONATE residency by Music Network in conjunction with the Ionad Cultúrtha with support from @artscouncil_ie

It was a joy to share these past few months with my friends Hannah and Alec. Challenging at times finding our middle ground, figuring out where we all fit, getting the wheels turning and finding that flow state where we were all just creating new sounds and bouncing ideas and

watching them rebound into the ether...
Anyway, we finished there on the 6th of November with a performance of the new works in front of an audience of locals and visitors, but before the performance we sat with our in-house engineers and recorded the pieces especially for you.

Watch them on the @MusNetIrl and @ionadculturtha social media channels at 7pm, or on this YouTube link here:
