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 first met Tracy Gallagher when she supported Peco back in November 2018 at a gig in Rathangan and through Twitter and Instagram, we kept it touch.
A month or so back, she invited me along to the launch of her single 'Paper Dolls' in the Workmans Club, so obviously I headed along.
A superb night of music was had with Tracy and band sounding in great form! Support on the night was from Jane Willow and Grainne Hunt.
Check out all three artists, they're all slightly different in styles, but are all fantastic.
