Drawing on the influences of traditional Irish folk song, Connolly‘s original lyrics pour forth from her own life in a torrent of meaning. She sings songs of birth and death, woman‘s rights, first love, the call of motherhood, the death of men at sea and post-colonial wrongs. All delivered with compelling emotional honesty and a raw urgency as McCallum, Ellis and Flowers delve deeply into the spaces between rock, ambient, folk and jazz to deliver a powerfully hypnotic accompaniment that moves from chilled soundscapes to rocking anthems.
