Unseen Sounds: The Aileen Podcast

CPI Archive 2008: In May of 2008, I started the Unseen Sounds series to provide a platform for up and coming Clare musicians and bands. The first article and podcast features Kilrush singer songwriter, Aileen. 

ASK any budding musical talent about the importance of commercial success and shifting ‘units’ and you’ll likely as not get an answer lifted straight from the streets of the Bohemian Montmartre — “It’s all about the music man.” The thing about Kilrush singer- songwriter Aileen, though, is that she really seems to mean it. After cutting her musical teeth at the age of 13 with soft rock five-piece Wire Bullet, it was the persistence of other people that dragged her slowly into making music. “The solo stuff started about three or fours years ago. One of my friends, Liam Frawley, was down in UL and he coaxed me down to record a demo with him,” said Aileen.
