The making of this album has been a most enjoyable experience. It is something I have
been meaning to do for the past ten years….what’s that saying you should never put something on the long finger!!!!

This project would not have been possible without the help of my husband, family and friends….years of believing in me and helping me to achieve my goals.
Thank you for your loyalty, trust and honesty even when I didn’t necessarily want to
hear it.

The fact that my brother Gary and two sisters Aisling and Kelli Ann are performing with
me on this album makes it all the more special. Over the years we have always traditionally sang together in impromptu sessions but never in an official capacity.

I loved the experience of working with them and look forward to lots more occasions in the future…that is if they can stick their older bossy sister in the rehearsal room!!!!

A sincere thank you to all the wonderful musicians on the album for helping to bring
the songs to life and giving them individuality and spirit. To my patient recording engineer David McCune in The Ventry for getting a good vocal sound and adding bass and
percussion to the equation.

To Mr. Brett who I have renamed lastminute.com!!!! Co-ordinator, arranger, musician,
engineer, joint producer and friend, thank you for piecing the jig saw together for me
even if there were times when I didn’t think it was going to happen.

To members of my singing school who kindly gave their time to join me in song on
the tracks “Irelands call,” and “World in union,” Alison, Claire, Chloe, Denise, Phillie,
Liz, Shelley, Brian, Cillian, Gary, Mark and Myles.

Your time and giving of your talent was much appreciated.
