The Girl I Left Behind Me

Silvy, The Highwayman (1890)

Silvy has gone by many different names including Silvie, Nelly Ray, Sovay, Sovie, Sovie, and Silvia. No matter what she goes by, she is a badass robber stealing from passing travelers. In this case, she dresses as a man to steal from her “true love” just to make sure he’s man enough for her.

Memory Marks

Born by the banks of the Boyne, where the Fianna once roamed, Brú na Bóinne plays electronic future folk to summon ancient faeries and memories of the skies of the Stone Age.

“The Irish Exile” was recorded as part of the RPM Challenge 2016. It is a collection of eight traditional Irish songs (with some modern flourishes) set to mirror the plot of Barry Lyndon.
