Scanlon has presented several music-based Television programmes for both the BBC and TG4 in recent years and released her latest album ‘Gossamer’ in 2016 to critical acclaim.
The Whileaways are three powerful forces in Irish roots music, Noelie McDonnell, Noriana Kennedy and Nicola Joyce combine to create a beguiling tapestry of harmonies, tradition and beautifully crafted original songs. Their sound is simply captivating, enthralling live audiences and securing their firm footing in roots music both in Ireland and internationally.

KW-41-2020: Das Scheitern an der Wahrheit oder Die Aktualität von Lüge & Wahrheit – Ein Blick aus der Vergangenheit in die Zukunft – still alive & noch immer aktuell … Leonard Cohen`s Gedanken über einen Song über die Zukunft, in dem er schon 1992 die heutige Gegenwart beschrieb: #The_Future. – So etwas können nicht viele. Heute bestehen Wahrheiten mehr aus Lügen. Es gibt gar wahre Meister/innen der Lügen, die gar ihre eigenen Lügen nicht als wahr erkennen. – Damals wie Heute . Der Preis ist das Scheitern am Leben, den sie zumeist selbst bezahlen.
