Aisling Lyons: Journeys HarpSong™️ Harp Podcast: A Moon Over the Trees Music and Theatre Productions®

    • Music Interviews

I came across Aisling Lyons’ music while reading through some posts from my alma mater, The Irish World Academy of Music and Dance at The University of Limerick. We did talk a bit about UL during our chat.. The track playing in the background is Aisling’s composition, ‘Buíochas’, which translates to “Thank You” in Irish, was composed as a thank you to UL and it is also a track from her new album coming out later this year. You can find this opening track on Spotify, iTunes & Apple Music, and Bandcamp ahead of the album’s release later this year. Artists joining her on this track are: Fiddle & Viola: Fergal Scahill, Double Bass: Paul O'Driscoll, Guitar: Seán Lyons and the beautiful album artwork was created by County Clare artist Sorrell Reilly.


Aisling grew up with music, in fact her parents met through Irish music. Unfortunately, Aisling’s father passed away while she was studying for her masters degree. She decided to take a year off from her degree and focus solely on music. Working on the material for her newest album became a form of therapy for her and helped her with the grieving process.

Along with composing and performing on harp and concertina Aisling is also a harp tutor at UL and most recently collaborated with Tolü Makay to perform for Irish President Michael D. Higgins’ 80th birthday.
Aisling will also be participating in the annual Lá na Cruite | Harp Day 2021.
