A Sign of Rain (mp3 available for download below!) 

A song inspired by Irish weather lore recorded in 1935 in the National Folklore Archive at UCD. These are the signs people once watched for—the small details in nature that told them rain was on the way.
And if you ever go to Ireland you'll know what to look out for!

Filmed live at The New School Church in Mill Race Village, Northville, which is a cool little park by the river with old buildings that have been kept looking new. real fun place.

A little bit more about the venue other than it being very reverby!
Built in 1845 by a splinter group of the Presbyterian Church of Northville, the building served as a church for just four years before taking on many lives—as a school, township hall, Salvation Army barracks, and Northville’s library for over 70 years. Saved from demolition in 1964 and moved to Mill Race Village in 1972, it remains a beautiful space for gatherings and music.

Many thanks to Samantha and the Friends of the Northville District Library, Wendy at Mill Race Village, and Mayor Brian Turnbull for their support.

Thanks also to my Tir Enda patrons and to all who came out to support the show. See you there next year for my WB Yeats program!
