anna’s Irish roots, and time in Yorkshire orchestras and ensembles bring a unique quality to her work. Her songs are otherworldly and her clarinet brings a chamberesque flavour to her enchanting sense of melody.
Most recently, anna was named one of the "Highly Recommended Artists" after being selected to perform on the Danny Kyle Open Stage at Celtic Connections in Glasgow.
Since its release on 15th November 2024, anna’s debut EP Fall of a Leaf has been played on BBC Radio 2 The Folk Show, Iain Anderson BBC Radio Scotland and Celtic Heartbeat BBC Radio Wales among others. The EP, produced by Boo Hewerdine and Chris Pepper at Saltwell Studio, was featured as EP of the Year (Best of 2024) by the David Dee Moore Radio Show.
In 2023, anna was selected for STAGES at Moniack Mhor (Scotland’s Creative Writing Centre) - an immersive song writing development programme for emerging artists.
The resulting 12 track album included Hope Flies With Swallows Wings which led to her being asked to record a Balcony Session for BBC Introducing.
