These are three narrative songs, sung without accompaniment, which take me back to when I first fell in love with folk songs in my twenties.
The Maid of Coolmore was the first folk song I ever sang in front of people, on my own, terrified beforehand but driven to share the magic of it. I think that if a noisy room falls silent when someone sings a song it's a sign that there is still such a thing as society and all is not lost.

The session was recorded and mixed by Pete Stacey at his studio on the banks of the river Clettwr one afternoon in December 2018.
