Helen Agnes D came to songwriting early – aged six in fact – and by her mid-teens she was already an experienced performer of her own material. Ever since then she has been distilling her life experience into finely-crafted songs.
Born in London and brought to Ireland as a baby and adopted. Despite devoted adoptive parents, she had a troubled childhood and early adulthood. Songwriting was not only a gift but a vehicle for survival.”The Avenue” is a collection of songs that explores many aspects of life and living. It explores grief and the challenge of finding a comfortable place to exist after displacement, mourning the life lost that led to the building of a new identity and the impact of owning that. Each song serves a purpose and is drawn from personal truth.
“The Avenue” is Helen’s forthcoming album due in 2024. “Candle and the Spoon” was released late 2023 followed in February 2024 by “Love that got Away. March 2024 will see the title track “The Avenue” released.
Recorded in Dublin at Egoboo Studios, the song was produced by Greg Malocca and features input from numerous talented musicians. Expect the gentle tones of pedal steel, vibrant strings, and haunting vocals, all expertly mixed to create a smooth sound that serves the songs well.
The album The Avenue will be released 2024
