Anna’s Anchor to island hop on recording mission

We like quirky stuff at GP. We did our own ridiculously unnecessarily convoluted charity event Coast to Coast: Tea and Toast when we crossed Ireland and back meeting bands, recording live songs on the side of the streets, editing and uploading as we went.

This summer, Anna’s Anchor working with Never Meant Records will be taking a similar exciting trip called “The Islands”. Anna’s Anchor, the project of Limerick based singer songwriter Marty Ryan, will visit a different island off the coast of Ireland every weekend in June and July, play a gig, write and then record and release a song each week.

We’ll be keeping an eye on the progress and we’ll post the videos as we get them too.
