Info for Songs From Home

Traditional and contemporary: Songs From Home spotlights traditional poetry and folklore alongside contemporary pieces, providing a soundtrack to Keating’s personal story as he weaves unheard tales of his youth to the songs and artists embedded in his heritage.

Highlights of the set include “No Frontiers,” an elegant collaboration with Ronan’s fellow Dubliner and vocal inspiration Mary Black. “Heyday” is a poignant nod to Skylarkin’, the only solo album by American-born Irish singer-songwriter Mic Christopher, released after his tragic death after a head injury sustained in 2001, when he was just 32.

“Raglan Road” presents the story of an Irish love affair well known in Dublin; crafted from a Patrick Kavanagh poem, Ronan sings fondly of the address in the city’s Ballsbridge neighborhood. “Summer in Dublin” is another nostalgic song for the singer, from the heart of the Irish community, in which he reminisces about the summer of 1990, just before Boyzone’s rise to fame, when Ireland’s attention was focused on its football team’s appearance in the World Cup.

Keating’s ten studio albums in huis own name and his vast array of hit singles have helped him amass solo sales of 20 million records. He has also been a judge on the X Factor and The Voice in Australia, performed in the highly acclaimed West End show Once and been a host on BBC1’s The One Show. The new album, steeped in tradition, brings him full circle back to his roots.
