Irish Roots is a compilation of beautiful Irish Ballads recorded with a contemporary flavor and performed with clarity, emotion and beauty. Most of the songs are sad and the selections were meant to tug at the heart. There is an upbeat, Nashville style love song to lift your mood as well! It and two other touching songs (Daddy"s Song and You"re A Lady) are samples of Maura"s songwriting. They are included as tributes to her mother and father...her Irish Roots! 100%.
