Details:
Irish singer-songwriter Clare O'' Mahony first began performing at one of Cork''s most popular songwriter nights held in Fred Zepplin''s. She has since gone on to support musicians such as James Blunt, John Spillane, Niall Connolly and Susan Enan and played in venues such as the Lobby, de Barra''s, Triskel Arts Centre and Cyprus Avenue. Clare has also been involved in a number of double-headliner shows with artists including Dublin-based Ann Scott, as well as Tessa Perry and Anto.

Clare''s debut album Secret World is just finished. The album features 10 original tracks, 2 of which were produced and recorded by renowned Irish producer Declan Sinnott.

In June 2005, Clare travelled to Newfoundland, Canada, where she was one of 6 Irish songwriters chosen to take part in the first Atlantic Crossroads Festival - a concept where Irish songwriters come together to collaborate and perform with Newfoundland songwriters including Ron Hynes("Sonny''s Dream"), Pamela Morgan, Hugh Scott, Jim Fidler, Darrell Power (Great Big Sea) and Colleen Power. One of the highlights of this trip was singing the well known "Sonny''s Dream" with the writer of the song to a packed house at St. John''s Arts and Culture Centre. Clare''s album Secret World sold out at the shows and so it has been placed for sale here at https://www.tradebit.com!

"This debut album from one of the best-known singer/songwriters on the Cork scene confirms that Clare O'' Mahony has a natural gift for song-craft. The 10 tracks, dealing with the human condition, incorporate strong, imaginative melody lines and sensitive lyrics. A graduate of Cork''s celebrated Colaiste Stiofain Naofa''s Music, Management and Sound course, Clare O'' Mahony sings in attractive, crystal-clear style. There is no attempt to imitate or copy, this is a woman confident in her art - honest, intelligent and engaging."
