I'm often asked what kinds of projects I'm working on. Fortunately, the work is quite diverse, so I've decided to start this blog to help answer that question. 

27/8/2025 Orla Haugh's album is ready for mastering.
It was a very special project, and a joy to work on.

The mixing was a collaboration: I added effects, processed the individual tracks and instrument groups, and then sent it to Orla. She integrated the tracks into a final mix, meticulously riding the faders. She did a wonderful job, and I can't wait to hear the mastered result.

The project began by recording Orla singing live with the harpist Úna Ní Fhlannagáin. Afterwards, musicians from Galway and Clare recorded bodhrán, fiddle, and piano in separate sessions.

27/06/2025 Recording Galway's Siúcra six-piece band live in the studio.

For most of the tracks, we had Ophelia singing in the control room, Rory with the fiddle in the piano room, and the rest of the band (drums, bass, two electric guitars) in the live room. For some tracks the singer was in the live room with the band. 

19/06/2025 The legendary Úna with her custom-made harp recording an album with original tracks, live at St. Nicholas Cathedral in Galway.
Two evenings, two consecutive gigs each night. Can't wait for the video. Here are Harry and Úna at St. Nicholas Cathedral, preparing for the gig.
