Post Description

Folk, Gaelic, Scottish, traditional folk, Glasgow.

Mo Thìr | My Land, is a collection of songs that have shaped me as a singer and connected me more deeply with the island I call home, Islay.

Many of these songs have been carried through generations, preserving the stories, language and spirit of Islay and the wider Gaelic community. Others have found their way to me through my own travels and musical journey. Alongside these songs are two of my own compositions, one born from the words of the Islay bard William Livingstone, the other inspired by a story from my own family.

Throughout this album run themes of love, loss, emigration and belonging. Whether telling of sailors lost at sea, lovers separated by distance, or of people forced to leave their homes, these songs speak of experiences that remain deeply familiar today.

This album would not have been possible without the extraordinary musicians who shared their talents so generously. Their creativity, friendship and support have helped bring these songs to life, and I am profoundly grateful to each of them.

It is a privilege to share these songs and stories, and to add my own voice to the rich tradition from which they come. I hope they find a place in your heart, as they have mine.
