O'Neill, Lisa: All Of This Is Chance (CD)

A raconteur in the truest sense of the word, every story starts somewhere and O’Neill starts this extraordinary collection here on Earth, on Irish soil, hands in the land. 

The album is full of both orchestral masterpieces like the ambitious and cinematic ‘Old Note’ and title track ‘All Of This Is Chance’, inspired by the great Monaghan writer Patrick Kavanagh’s prescient meditation on The Great Hunger, as well as stirring meditations on nature, birds, berries, bees and blood that ring out over a clacking banjo, dusting and devastating all those in its wake.

All Of This Is Chance takes Lisa’s inimitable voice to greater heights or depths, depending on which way you look at it.
