about

“UnderCovered” has been described as a quietly understated homecoming. It contains 11 original tracks plus a short prose against the acapella background of Mozart’s Dona Nobis Pacem. Typically, each song is message-driven as is typical of the folk genre, however this album cannot simply be categorised in the ‘folk’ category. Once again, O’Brien blurs the boundaries between blues/jazz/contemporary folk/ folk-rock as she blends melodies, lyrics and tempo into an eclectic fusion of listening pleasure. She said at the time of its release; “with this album I wanted to come back to an authentic sound – bring the music back home where it belongs, to the songwriting.

“Finally, I am at peace in my skin of Songwriter. Confident that I have nothing to prove. My songs can stand the test of time for listeners who find what they seek…a song that has meaning to them alone. What more can a Songwriter ask for?”
