I’m delighted to announce the release of my second album ‘Utopia’, the title track is my own composition. An unaccompanied solo fiddle album, Utopia features a number of never before recorded tunes, and several Leitrim compositions including those by Liddy & Lennon. A downloadable handwritten tune book (basic staff notation & ABC ) to accompany this album is also available.
A big thank you to Leo at Vibes Recording Studio, Co. Leitrim for recording and mastering the album and to everyone who has supported my music since launching ‘Black Swan’ in 2015. The past year has really highlighted the importance of music in our lives. It has the power to transport the listener and the performer to an idyllic world ~ utopia.
I hope you enjoy the album and perhaps learn a new tune or two! Lisa
Delighted to announce that The Ward Sisters will be part of the headline concert at the Drogheda Trad Festival this weekend. More details can be found over on their website (linked below)
