Ireland

Ireland brings a bright authentic coffeehouse experience to every event. Classics songs like "Friday I'm in Love" by The Cure are beautifully reinterpreted. Modern songs like Lovely The Band's "Broken" are flawlessly rendered. Each show has a hand full of ukulele songs, both covers and originals, that keep the energy high and the experience fun for everyone.
Ireland travels with sound. Whether its small private gathering or a show for 150 people, Ireland brings a full compliment of the needed amps, monitors, and speakers.

Ireland is an award winning singer/songwriter who brings an authentic indie-folk experience to every project. Her distinctive voice signature conjures something both new and nostalgic. Ireland is a hardworking musician who plays several gigs weekly and puts out new music every year.

Ireland grew up in the Dallas-Ft. Worth area and got her start at the age of 13 opening a show for The Chris Rivers Band. At the age of 15 she became the youngest semi-finalist in the prestigious B.W. Stevenson Singer/Songwriter Memorial Contest since Marin Morris. In 2015 she joined the Dallas Songwriter Associations (DSA) and quickly gained recognition as an award winning lyricist and songwriter. That same year she released her first EP - a LoFi production titled “Clouded Dreams.”

In 2016 Ireland hit the DFW coffeehouse circuit and began to gig on a regular basis. That led to an insatiable love for performing........ and caffeine. During the summer of the same year she snagged one of the performer slots at Springboard South and released her first live EP, “Live at the Cosmic Crow.”

In 2017 Ireland started playing at festivals and added regular gigs at DFW restaurants. In May she played at the Wildflower Arts and Music Festival and September played on the main stage at Grapefest. Later in the year she released her first studio EP, “Fifteen.” The EP featured award winning songs “Only Once” and “Addiction.”

In 2018 Ireland played over 80 gigs in Texas and continued to build her brand. She returned to the Wildflower Arts and Music Festival and added Deep Ellum Arts Festival and Main Street Days to her festivals card. Her CD “Ireland Live” was her fourth CD released in as many years. The CD introduced her listeners to four new original songs, shared live versions of older favorites, and for the first time included a couple covers.

Ireland kicked off 2019 with a trip to south Texas to share her new music at the Corpus Christi Songwriters Festival where she was honored as the "Best of Fest" songwriter. She continues to book new gigs at a rapidly increasing rate. She is also at work writing her first full length album. The working title of the album is “The Life of Rosemary Ellis.” Her desire is to create an album that tells a life’s story one song at a time. Current plans include recording two singles from the upcoming album in the Spring.

No stage....no worries. Ireland travels with sound. For gigs from small gatherings to indoor/outdoor events with up to 150 people she brings everything.
