Heres my take on a few verses of @tracychapmanonline song ‘The Promise’ inspired by @brandicarlile ‘s version which is so so beautiful ❤️ I am also working on accompanying myself on guitar for at least one song when i go back out gigging (its a work in progress) and not allowing perfectionism hold me back from engaging a little more on here (also a work in progress)… Hope you are all having a lovely Sunday whatever you are up to xx Donna

Hi Everyone, I have been quiet on here lately but

Hi Everyone, I have been quiet on here lately but thats nothing new 🙋‍♀️🥰 Just wanted to say hello! I have spent most of the evening going through old pictures! This was 5 years ago and my babies are now all at school … It feels like yesterday this photo was taken and has made me both happy and sad to look back and see how they have grown and how we as a family are now at a different stage xx Although I have been quiet on the career front, life this past few years has given me plenty to write about and so I have been putting all the highs and lows into songs! Songwriting has proven to be an incredibly healing outlet whereby I can put into a song what I am often unable to say and feel lighter afterwards x I hope each of you have your own outlet and a way of releasing and making sense of life’s ups and downs whatever that may be! It’s so important to have something for yourself that fills you up and makes you feel good! Hope you are all keeping well 💕 All my love Donna xx

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
