Byrne, Jennifer

Suitcase

Jennifer Byrne was born in Dublin, raised for a time in County Wicklow before crossing the border into County Wexford. Her debut album contains guest appearances by the cream of the current folk and acoustic scene, including Kris Drever (Lau, Kate Rusby, BBC Folk Awards winner), John McCusker (Kate Rusby, Mark Knopfler, BBC Folk Awards winner), Roy Dodds, Boo Hewerdine (who also produced) and Brooks Williams. Suitcase is an eleven-track album of songs new and traditional. The title track refers to the cardboard suitcases young Irish immigrant men used to carry their humble belongings to the UK during the 1950s and 60s only to become something of a lost generation.
