Linda Coogan Byrne and her team over at WhyNotHer have put together a startling report on the state of the Irish Singles Chart over the last 20 years and how it practically ignored Women and BIPOC. It's an incredible piece of work, one that, had all things been fair and equal, should never have had to be complied. Unfortunately, like most things, the Irish Music Industry isn't a fair and equal place... Anyway, don't take my word for it, click here to read the report.
I’ve been going to see Saoirse Casey for years. From gigs in cafes, to racecourses and theatres, ending up last weekend in Whelans, Dublin.
This gig was a bit special though, it was the launch party for her debut album entitled Lunaria.
On the night, Saoirse was supported by a full band, something I’d never seen in any of her gigs before. It really added so much to the night and the sound in the Parlour Rooms has a beautiful warmth to it.
You can buy the album on all the major platforms, or you can purchase it through her website and get a personalised message on it. Anyway, go buy it, you’ll not be disappointed!
