about

HOME is a wintery ethereal folk balled and the title track of my sophomore album written during an artist residency at Sirius Arts Centre around the new year of 2021. I sat watching the river Lee ebb and flow with the tide as the year turned and I drew inspiration from the stillness of winter and all I had learned from the solitude of lockdown; That being alone and feeling completely at home in my skin and in the land was one of the most beautiful and peaceful experiences of being. It is a celebration of me finding my sovereignty in my skin and power as a woman.

lyrics

I am home, I am here
Fulsome in my skin
Leaves surrender to the soil
Let the winter stillness in
All that’s past has gone, all that’s yet to come
At the turning of the year

Oh Winter hold me tightly in your arms
Tá an Chailleach anseo
Oh Winter hold me tightly in your heart
Tá mé anseo

Holding on to yesterday’s song
Why weep for what’s not here?
All we have is now a memory
Ghosts of yesteryear
Watch the river Lee, Flow into the Sea
She knows her way home
Tides may rise , floods may scald her shores
Does she ever feel alone?

Alone, Alone

Finding home in the mountain
Finding home in the sea
Finding home in the smiles we share
Over pints, coffee and tea
Finding home in the blistering rain
The slap lash of the hail
Finding home in the constancy of change
Home disguised in death’s veil

Oh Winter hold me tightly in your arms
Tá an Chailleach anseo
Oh Winter hold me tightly in your heart
Tá mé anseo

Twinkle twinkle little star
How I wonder what you are
Twinkle twinkle little star
