Be Still My Soul was her first solo album.
There's also her EP Broken By Design.

She is going to be so good at being a mom. That child is going to grow up with a lot of joy.

Amy plays Nurse Becky Barrow in a new TV Series called Revival.
One miraculous day in rural Wisconsin the deceased rise from their graves, yet appear and act unchanged. And now it is up to Officer and single mother Dana Cypress to solve a murder case where everyone, alive or undead, is a suspect.
The premier was June 12th.
If you're expecting The Last Of Us, it's not. 😂 But it had some jaw droppers. It's a surprisingly entertaining mix of humour and creepiness.
You would be hard pressed to spot Amy in episode 1 though.

Adriel Fair has some short tracks that are really fun to listen to. A bunch of them have a Celtic / epic soundtrack vibe, although some of the fun ones cross into Mediterranean or tropcial territory. They also have qualities reminiscent of Hans Zimmer, like lively percussion and short string notes, techniques that carry a lot of energy throughout the tracks.
I particularly enjoy the tracks from Giants, Arms of the Wind, Cloud Prism (The Village Welcoming track is my favourite), The Lost Hills, and Splitting the Arrow.
Don't start with To Pirate Cove though. It might be fun for kids, but I find it over-the-top cheesy. 😂
The music's on Spotify, YouTube, Apple Music, etc.

I finally received my CD in the mail today.
The CD is in the sleeve of reasonably sturdy glossy cardboard. As a bonus, the edge is wide enough you can see the album name when it's placed on a shelf with other CDs. It's not a thin little thing that disappears between the albums. It also comes with a nice booklet that has notes about each song, and even some photos from the times that inspired them.
My favourite track is still the medley that ends in Catch The Wind. It's really catchy.

2026 is possibly a typo. It may be this year. Not sure though. Could be either. Here's the Kickstarter link.

Alex has a new Christmas album, "The Secret of Christmas," set for release in November 2025.
From Alex:
THE MUSIC
Produced and arranged by the amazing Jay Nygarrd, this album is a celebration of the music and memories that make the holidays magical.
Inspired by the holiday greats I grew up listening to — Nat King Cole, Bing Crosby, Ella Fitzgerald, Frank Sinatra and Andy Williams.
Their timeless songs and musical styles filled our home every December and still bring back the magic of my childhood Christmases.
You can expect lush orchestral arrangements, jazzy big band energy, and a whole lot of heart.
This is the music I love to sing — vibrant, nostalgic, and full of joy.
AN EARLY CHRISTMAS MIRACLE!
Here’s where it gets magical…
A generous supporter of the arts has stepped forward and fully funded the production of this album. Their support has been an absolute Christmas miracle, and I’m deeply grateful for their belief in this project.
THE MESSAGE
Beyond the music, this album carries a deeper message. A few years ago, I discovered a beautiful, lesser-known song called “The Secret of Christmas”, originally sung by Bing Crosby and written by Jimmy Van Heusen and Sammy Cahn. One line in particular struck me:
“The secret of Christmas is not the things you do at Christmas time, but the Christmas things you do all year through.”
That lyric stayed with me and ultimately became the emotional core of this album. It’s a reminder that the true spirit of Christmas – kindness, compassion, and goodwill – isn’t just for one season. It’s something we can carry with us all year round.
HOW YOU CAN SUPPORT AND JOIN THE JOURNEY...
Now, I’m turning to you, my incredible community, to help with the manufacturing costs – so we can bring this music to life in a physical form.
The album will be available digitally for streaming and download, but I’m also producing a limited run of CD's and, most excitingly, a special gold vinyl edition. Growing up listening to vinyl's, the idea of holding my own Christmas album on vinyl feels like a deeply personal and nostalgic milestone to sharing this album with the world — and that’s where you come in!
On July 1st, we’re launching a KICKSTARTER CAMPAIGN to help bring The Secret of Christmas to life through.

Gavin Murphy released an instrumental album called Moment: https://ditto.fm/moment-gavin-murphyIt's a soothing, peaceful listen. Piano is the predominat instrument along with some light strings and winds. It's a digital-only release as far as I know.

The Shamrock Tenors: Live from Belfast special apparently got nominated for 3 Emmy's! Well, technically Michigan Emmy's not the Primetime Emmy's. But I suppose it still counts. https://natasmichigan.org/emmy-awards/nominees-winners/It makes Mairéaid Carlin and Máiréad Nesbitt the only 2 members of Celtic Woman to be part of a production nominated for an Grammy (Destiny) and an Emmy (Songs from the Heart).
