info 

Karan has teamed up with Sean Og Graham, her long-time collaborator and friend, to create a dynamic and enchanting album of songs that speaks to healing, camaraderie in times of strife, finding enrichment and new life in campaigning for women, and of course death. This is an ode to the natural world featuring the songbirds of Portglenone, the moon, conversations from the grave, returning to the wild, listening for the cuckoo as she sleeps. The empowerment of women is front and centre of Karan?s concerns as she gives voice to the notion that songs can sing what we cannot say. Her defiance, her vulnerabilities and her feminist heart bellow through these songs. Adding their unique vocals to the album are Niamh Dunne, Pauline Scanlon, R?oghnach Connolly, Conor McCreanor, John McCullough, Hannah Hiemstra and Kate Ellis among others.
