Corcra Release date has been set!

December 21, 2018 by frainc

Tá athas orm a rá libh go bhfuil eisiúint ghinearálta m’albam nua ‘Corcra’ socraithe le haghaidh 01/02/19. Beidh mé ag glacadh le réamh-ordaithe ar an suíomh idirlín ó mhí Eanáir ar aghaidh agus beidh cóipeanna ar fáil ag na hócáidí seolta le linn mhí Eanáir chomh maith.

 

Corcra Release date has been set!
I am excited to announce that my new album ‘Corcra’ will be available on general release from 01/02/19. I will be taking advance orders though this website from January and copies will be available at launch events prior to the general release.

Corcra Album Cover

December 10, 2018 by frainc

Tá athas orm bheith in ann cludach m’albam nua a roinnt libh inniu. “Corcra”, dath na cruthaitheachta, a bheas mar theideal air agus eiseofar an t-albam go luath sa bhliain úr.
Gach seans go mbainfidh an te a bhfuil speis aige sa Chóimheas Órga sult as a bhfuil le léamh ó na léaráidí seo. Is fada againn tuiscint ar an ghaol idir an cheol agus an eolaíocht agus an chéimseata, eolas a chuir leis ealaín anseo.  Tá an t-ádh orm gurb é m’fhear chéile féin, Frainc Mac Cionnaith, a dhear seo!

 

I am delighted to share the cover for my new album. It will be titled ‘Corcra’ – the colour of creativity, and will be available early in the new year.
Those of you with a keen interest in the Golden Ratio may take particular interest in the drawings. The relationship between music, physics and geometry has been appreciated for centuries and is reflected in the artwork here.  Frainc Mac Cionnaith is the artist and I’m very lucky to say he is my husband!

Studio Days!

June 21, 2018 by frainc

Just a quick little note to say that I was back in the studio today and the new album is coming along really well. All my own original songs and I can’t wait to share them with the world. Working with Brian Finegan and Seán Óg has been a real pleasure and as we enter the last few days in the studio, I’m starting to get excited about the finished product! More news to come soon!

July 4, 2016 by frainc

Bhí mé ar bís bheith mar láithreoir ar sraith nua de chuid BBC Ráidió Uladh darbh ainm Amhránaithe Oirialla. Rinne muid sraith anuraidh faoi amhránaithe Gaeilge Bhéal Feirste agus i mbliana thug muid chuairt ar cheantair atá sáite i gceol, cultúr agus traidisiúin na Gaeilge. Bhí aoíonna den chéad scoth againn agus is féidir éisteacht leofa i mbun ceol agus cainte. Tosóidh an sraith Dé Luain ag 7in, bígí linn!!

I’m absolutely delighted to be presenting a new series on BBC Radio Ulster about the Gaelic singers of Oriel. It was an honour an a pleasure to present a series last year which focused on Belfast’s great Gaelic singers and this time we’re visiting an area well known for its culture, tradition and music. We have some fantastic guests and you can hear them singing and having a chat about their background every Monday on BBC Radio Ulster at 7pm. The 6-part series starts this Monday 4th July. Bígí Linn.
