“I would like to show my solidarity with the Palestinian people ... 
and for peace and love, 
and against war and children being harmed and maimed, 
and against genocide, 
and against occupation, 
and also for Jewish people who use their voices to fight for peace as well because that’s tough too.”

#tatreez dress by 
Palestinian sisters 
@tatreezsisters
(Another favourite small 
company is @deerah)
Btw I checked diligently if it was culturally appropriate and I had absolute blessing to wear this traditional Palestinian dress. 
Big love to hero’s

I’m delighted to join St Brigids Day Festival 31st Jan to celebrate our Matron Saint Brigid in the county of Cill Dara: meaning church of Oak (aka Kildare) 
this coming Brigids Day, which we fought so hard for. 
Brigid, daughter of Dagda from Tuatha Dé Danann
 (tribe of Danu) was a force of light, fire, poetry, 
art, love, song and creativity. 
She is the gateway to spring, life and new beginnings.
We gather to give thanks and celebrate her and all the wonderful women of Ireland that made us all. 
I’m so delighted to attend this celebration again
 (I’ve been to every one so far!) and join the most amazing line up of women at this special festival that is growing each year to celebrate Brigid through our wonderful culture. 
See you there.
Imelda x
p.s.  this is not a ‘women’s’ festival in the same way all male line ups aren’t called ‘men’s’ festivals
All welcome.

I’m coming to you soon! 
10 nights UK Spring Tour 
called Raised on Songs and Stories 
It’ll be an evening of songs, poems, stories, 
joy and beauty.
This idea evolved naturally over the last couple of years. 
You see when I write, produce and release an album 
I get  so excited to perform the songs live that I fizz up and plan and rehearse gigs with such enthusiasm 
that I’m like a little thrilled whirlwind but too often 
I leave room for little else. 
I consider and work out which songs will flow best 
into another to create the vibe desired 
that I sometimes don’t leave much space for the 
unknown which is where a different magic lies. 
This space is the place where I exist most and write and create.  So it feels right to stay there a while and to have a place where someone might ask for a song I haven’t visited in a while and I think ‘yeah let’s give it a go’, or where I can tell you the stories behind the songs and how I ended up working with some of the people I’ve worked with so far. 
I was raised on nights like these hence the title
 ‘Raised on Songs and Stories’ tipping my hat to a song about my beloved Dublin where I grew up.
Not a ‘show’ this will be a shared night of what 
music, art, connection and creativity 
means to me, with you.

Years ago I used to sing in the foyer of @royalfestivalhall 
Last Sat night I sold out the venue!!!! Feels good. 
I’m a working class artist who has never formally trained in music but I have certainly worked hard at the calling and craft I am in a forever love with through all of its ups and downs. 
Thanks to the amazingly talented musicians who helped make the gig so very special.. @guitardarling @craigconnet @oscar_golding_music @paddymilner @adamchetwood 
thanks to @ellyokeeffemusic for singing with me so beautifully 
Thanks to my tour manager @tomjcleary and to all my crew for lifting each song with such thoughtful and heartfelt sound and lighting. 
 Thanks to @londonjazzfest for inviting me to perform at their incredible festival.
Thanks to my management 
@meredithplant1 and @audreytjohnston for working SO hard with me day and night. 
Thank you to all who came Sat night and to all of you who stick with me and believe in me through all my imperative to my soul, creative adventures 
of which there are more to come. 
See you again soon,
Imelda X
