Sive just recently released her latest album, ' We Begin in Darkness ', and what a superb album it is! Every album deserves a launch night and that's what tonight, in the Workman's Club Cellar , was all about, and what a night it was! With the backing of a full band, we were treated to a superb night featuring songs from the aforementioned We Begin in Darkness, Sive (EP) and more. Sive is always gigging, so if she comes to your local venue, I'd really recommend checking her out! Now for some photos:
Back in May, I headed off to see Leslie Dowdall and Mike Hanrahan play a gig here in Naas. I'd seen Leslie play on a few previous occasions, and I was a big fan of In Tua Nua. I'd never seen Mike play before, but I was well aware of Stockton's Wing, so this had all the makings of a great night.
Over the course of the night, I took a few photos and, as normal, posted them on the #IrishMusicParty over on Twitter the following Monday night. Somehow Mike saw the photographs and really liked the photo below.
He liked it so much that he ended up using it in his latest book 'A Beautiful Affair' (available from all good booksellers).
So yeah... That's the story of how one of my photos ended up in a book... Oh and the book itself, it's rather beautiful, a great read. Check it out!
