“Coming Home is a bewitching album…it might just be the best album she has ever released.” - The Irish Independent
“Just divine and affecting” - Mark Radcliffe, BBC Radio 2
“Memoir, poem, guidebook, diary. It is a work of intimacy, love, and affection, unguarded and authentic. It’s the tent of childhoods spent dreaming under a night sky in summer. It’s boundless.” - Maria McManus, Director of Poetry Ireland
Born from a collection of personal poems and the remarkable album and book that followed, this acclaimed live production sees Cara interweave this highly emotive new material with a carefully curated selection of her beloved classics.
