She was very helpful and approachable to me when I had some questions about some singers from her local session in Forkhill. Might as well try the source... (btw, imho, her songs are absolutely beautiful.) http://www.myspace.com/briegemurphy |

Wish I could do it half so well; I just love listening to her! |
