West Kerry, Ireland is my home.

Westward is the title of my latest solo CD and involves many old friends . It is a collection of personal favourites and some original works that I have finally got around to writing.

People seem to gravitate towards the West and bring with them their stories and their lives and, often, their music.

West Kerry is such a place and always has been. It was a also a harsh place to live in times gone past, but has retained its beauty and its identity in an increasingly homogenised world.

Music has brought me all over that world but coming home and feeling at home is what nourishes me - the physical place,the conversations, the humour and the music. It is special.
