Sample a few songs from The Irishman’s Daughter

‘The Irishman’s Daughter’ is a CD that’s been in the works for a few years, and I’m so happy that it’s finished and out there in the world!  It was important to me to not try to sound like a traditional artist, but like myself ~ which is a third generation Irish American with a love of the music.  My choices of material for this project are either my own take on trad music or my own compositions entirely, but still with an Irish vibe to them.  And, of course, none of these songs and tunes would be anything without the help of the amazing musicians who played on them!
                As always, a huge ‘thank you’ to you all.

 

Here are a couple of reviews with more to come ~

‘Kitty Donohoe is, like the title of the album, an Irishman’s daughter.  On this recording she explores her roots and her relationship with Ireland, it’s lore, it’s wider culture and it’s music.  She has a fine posse of players…and adds her guitar, cittern and piano to a number of tracks.  Kitty is making a name for herself in Irish America and you can see why from the high quality of the work here.  Irish Music Magazine

‘Kitty Donohoe is a very talented songwriter/instrumentalist from Ann Arbor, Michigan [and] she has produced a wonderful recording with inspiration drawn from her life’s story.   Simple and tasteful, always allowing for attention to be placed on the singer and the song.  That is as it should be.  Sing Out!

‘A beautiful mix of traditional and her own written songs.’  Johnny’s Garden, Holland, Europe

And apparently ‘The Irishman’s Daughter’ is (or was in July) the #8 best-selling Irish record in Japan!
