Juliet is playing a gig at Cork Arts Theatre on 20th May for the charity Child Aid. There may be some tickets left but have a look at the Child Aid website and consider supporting the great work they do.

Music on the water on the 2nd June 2012 with special guest Matt McGinn
see tour dates for further details.

It’s called “Years Ago in Our Back Yard” and it’s very, very good. The album launch is on the 27th May in the Black Box in Belfast and you find out all about Farriers, the launch gig and how to purchase the new album here

thanks to everyone who came to our gigs in Kerry, beautiful county. Ailihies in particular, the mine museum, worth every stunning mile.

The gig in Schull on the 12th May has been postponed – I believe because of a clashing event in a local bookshop which is attracting more punters than my gig. That’s good news in a way – I love bookshops, so it’s good to see one thriving, also I have an unexpectedly free Saturday night. Apologies to those who had booked tickets, please contact the venue for further details.

For my inaugural Cork run I choose the Juliet Turner album People Have Names. I head off, down the hotel driveway out the gate and down a country lane. Then I turn a corner and suddenly I am jogging around what looks like a lake but what I find out later is the River Lee.

“I am looking out at the still water, listening to Turner and I get a sense of something incredible. I am enjoying this. I am clearly rubbish at it but in this moment and for perhaps the first time this running business feels right.

A song comes on called The Elder of the Tribe: Take care of your lovely young life. It’s all that you get, you don’t get no more . . .”

I’m constantly questioning my motives for running but now I realise that this lyric might say something about what I am trying to do here. And I discover something else on this new path: I can run and cry at the same time”

I’m really pleased to tell you about a new album that should be making its way onto your i-pod. Yvonne Lyon has released “More Than Mine”. Her voice is beautiful and for those of you who don’t like too many bells and whistles in your music, this will suit perfectly. You can download it from i-tunes.
