AINE TYRRELL BIO

“I didn't know where else to go, I needed to feel my pulse again,” says Irish born singer songwriter Aine Tyrrell on the question of why would you record your album outdoors under the stars, and in abandoned mines in the Australian outback.

Aine took the pieces of her life and songs into the desert on a quest for musical and spiritual self discovery, and from this one seed of temerity, a desert rose grew. This entire experience was captured by a documentary makers lens and a producers microphones, the fruits of which are to be shared with the world beginning February 2015.

Aine's music cradles the spirit of her native homeland, and tips the cap to a notable family history of Irish music tradition. Ache, honesty, and elated melodies, garnishing rhythms which a thousand years of ancestry have slammed foot to floor boards to, in both celebration and protest.

Australia's historical lineage, and love of all things Irish, stands as testament to the accolades and support she is now garnering here in her new homeland, having procured the honour of Queenscliff Music festivals 'Emerging Talent 2014' mantle, along with receiving the invaluable and ongoing mentorship from our own Clare Bowditch and Shane Howard who also contributes his voice and musicianship to the upcoming release.

Aine's journey has only just began. This album will be completed in the spectacular fashion which it began, at inspirational locations across Victoria, amid the live performances in numerous festivals across this expansive country, as this unique talent continues to infiltrate the hearts and minds of music lovers everywhere.

Áine's music has grown from traditional Irish roots to a global contemporary sound, still cradling the homeland spirit, and dusted with the salt of the West Coast of Ireland. She is a singer songwriter with a sound transcending convention, at times tribal, at times fragile. This unique talent continues to infiltrate the hearts and minds of music lovers everywhere.

Her debut album Queen Of Swords will be released in 2015.
