Armed with his latest album ‘Wide Open, Horses’ prolific Irish songwriter James Vincent McMorrow is set to hit the road this winter for an Irish tour with shows in Limerick, Cork, Killarney, Dublin, Belfast, Galway and Kilkenny.

“To me, the album is about finding relief from the cycle of life’s pressure,” explains McMorrow of his 7th studio release. “I don’t think the theory ‘modernity equals better’ holds much water these days. The more technology we add, the more unhappy everyone seems to be. I don’t want to move backwards, but I felt a sense of nostalgia and happiness in the album. It would be grandiose of me to think I could offer you some profound release through words and lyrics, but maybe I can…The job is to make a record I love and hopefully offer a respite. Maybe we can all get back to a life where we aren’t so obsessed with trying to seek out meaning from absolutely everything.”
