A Life in Dublin

Bríd from Kilkenny - Discovering how culture, our environment and the unknown influence music

Ep. 75

They say what’s for you, won’t pass you by… A concept which inspired a lyric and an amazing song aptly named , pass me by, by Bríd Lyons from County Kilkenny in the South East of Ireland. 


The older I get, the more seriously I take these little proverbial cliches and myself and Bríd chat a little about the mystic nature of the lives we’re living.

We also delve into the inspiration behind her music and the Celtic influences that have found their way into her more recent work.


Bríd has three upcoming gigs. She’s in Whelan’s on Thursday 25th of May, Tullamore on the 26th and a homecoming gig in Kilkenny on May 27th. I’ll add links in the description of this podcast to Bird’s socials and also to her upcoming shows.


Before we jump into it, a huge thanks for listening. We’re looking to shine a light on the incredible artists in Ireland that don’t get half as much attention as they deserve. If you’re feeling generous, you could share this podcast with a friend or give it a like or a rating or whatever. This helps us more than you know and allows us to spread the stories of amazing artists like Bríd, that we have on our doorsteps… Really appreciate your support!


But now, here’s my conversation with Bríd Lyons…
