Background
According to Sharpe Music, Nathan Carter takes listeners on a musical journey through his beloved Irish Heartland. The album was recorded in Granard, Nenagh and New York and features collaborations with legendary artists including The High Kings, Finbar Furey and Cherrish the Ladies. The album also features a stunning orchestral accompaniment from the Bulgarian Symphony Orchestra. Speaking ahead of the album release, Carter said, "It’s fair to say that creating it has been a labour of love for me. Since long before my professional career in music, I have had a love for Irish songs. Over the years, I have adored performing folk music everywhere from Fleadh Ceoils to theatres and arenas across the world. Wherever I play, these songs are now some of the most popular on my set list and I play them with immense pride."[4][5]
