As the title implies Turas Cumadóir (Songwriter’s Journey) is my third solo album and reflects my ongoing journey as a writer, musician and singer. As an independent songwriter without a big record company or rich patron behind me, I decided to try the crowd-funding route to raise the necessary money to make Turas Cumadóir. I have to admit I was worried that I would never be able to do it but I was overwhelmed by the generous response from fans and followers which meant I had met the target well before the end date of the fundraising campaign. Inspired by their support, I tried to make an album that was worthy of the faith they have shown in me and my music and I think Turas Cumadóir achieves that.
