Hi there,

Today I am so excited to be arts calling singer/songwriter Ciara Lawless! https://linktr.ee/ciaralawless

About our Guest: From arranging flowers to arranging music, Irish singer and florist Ciara Lawless, goes from working in her flower shop by day to arranging music by night where she writes and records her own music. The Celtic songbird made her mark on the music industry with her debut single, ‘Half The Man’, in May of 2023. Since then, Ciara has been sharpening her stage skills performing at various festivals including The Mná Festival at Dun na Sí, Co. Westmeath, The Lovestock Festival in Tuamgraney, Co Clare and The Healing Spirit Festival in Co. Cavan. Ciara's music journey began at a young age when she started taking classes in acting and singing. She later developed an interest in classical and opera, training at the Academy of Music in Tullamore, where she also competed in national and international competitions. While some singers cut their chops while climbing the music ladder, Ciara earned her singing stripes as a funeral singer, something that she is very proud and honoured to do. With her debut album out now, Ciara Lawless is poised to become one of the most exciting new artists of 2024 and beyond. Her music deals with deep and meaningful themes while remaining uplifting, leaving a positive impact on the listener.

PAINT MY SOUL, Ciara's debut album, is now available! https://linktr.ee/ciaralawless
