A day with Ms Ireland




With one glance, you know for sure, this woman has lived. Her eyes tell stories; they welcome you in whilst at the same time saying ‘back the fuck down’. These people are my favourite, they come complete with intrigue and feed you just enough to make you want more. A feeling of warmth and effortless wisdom echoes in her twisted words, making you smile and question life as you know it. With a smile that reaches from one end of the room to the next you know the woman was meant to sing. And blessed we are for she has a voice that will infect your membranes and make you want to find your own.






It was a rainy day, back in early October when she invited me to her home to drink endless cups of chai and create some photographs to promote her upcoming gigs. If you cross this woman in your journeys you are bound to laugh or cry, go check her out at the Mullum Music Festival this weekend or take a peek on here.

Rock out.
