Hi Everyone, it has taken me a long time (9 years

Hi Everyone, it has taken me a long time (9 years to be exact) to talk openly and vulnerably about my own experience of loss. On 7th August 2014 I gave birth to my son Micheal who was born sleeping. When @malachicushmusic first asked me to be part of this new series ‘Healing Sounds’ were guests talk about their most painful experiences and the music that accompanied them on their path to healing, my reaction was to immediately say ‘No, I can’t do that’. I never thought I could or would be able to talk about this but I did and I feel relief for doing so. The interview airs on RTE Radio 1 tomorrow night at 10am. Thank you @malachicushmusic for your sensitivity and understanding during this interview. All my love Donna xx

It breaks my heart to see our children hurting as

It breaks my heart to see our children hurting as a result of not seeing their uniqueness and all the pressures that comes with trying to find their way and fit in in a world which is all to often superficial, intolerant and cruel. I wrote this song with my own children in mind (I do that a lot given its the season of life I am in as a young mother). This week the lyrics of this beautiful song i wrote with @jamiefloyd and @rachelthibodeaumusic really hit home and so i found myself playing it tonight and wanting to share a verse and chorus x Sending the biggest hugs to all of you who are hurting and doubting your beauty and place in this 🌎 Please however hard it gets ‘Don’t stop there’ 💔 Donna x

Friday 3rd February was my first headline concert in 4years (just before my youngest child James was born). To say I feel overjoyed now it is over is an understatement. It was a soulful night of songs, stories, friends and connection through music x Thank you to everyone who made the night so special including the incredible musicians I now call friends @savage.suzanne @mattmcglinnguitarstudio Rod Patterson and Brian Conor. To spend time and perform with @beth_nielsen_chapman @ruthtrimble @miamorrismusic and @tootsuk made it extra special ❤️ I am feeling incredibly blessed… thank you also @musiccapital for promoting the show and creating a beautiful setting 📸@katrinataggartphotography #singersongwriter #americanamusic #irishsingersongwriter #feelingblessed
