ST. PATRICK'S DAY SPECIAL

Special Guests

  • Sinead O'Connor — Iconoclastic Recording Artist (And that's a good thing!)
    Irish multi-platinum selling artist, Sinead O’Connor has just released her ninth studio album entitled How About I Be Me (And You Be You)? Produced by long-term collaborator John Reynolds, it includes nine original songs that touch on love, loss, religion and hope, and one cover (John Grant’s “Queen of Denmark”). Sinead has been playing the new songs during a series of critically acclaimed live shows in the UK, and The Guardian writes “O’Connor sounds on form, focused and fervent again.” With a career spanning over 25 years and millions of albums sold worldwide, Sinead first rose to fame in the late 1980s with her debut album, The Lion And The Cobra and then received massive worldwide success with her follow up album, I Do Not Want What I Haven’t Got.
