It’s back!

PORT is a song cycle born of a year-long research and writing project around the history and stories of Drogheda’s ancient Port, conducted during my tenure as Artist in Association at Droichead Arts Centre in 2019.

Along with its accompanying critically-acclaimed RTÉ Radio 1 Album of the Week Old Ghosts In The Water, PORT is full of work songs, story songs, love songs to the sea. Songs written in anger and written in sorrow. Songs about injustice and change. Songs about people.

“An impressive song cycle … the songs are intriguing and evocative; they are rooted in folk but coloured by expansive and imaginative arrangements.” – The Irish Times
