Paddy Mulcahy – You Could Walk Across The Shannon

Limerick composer and producer Paddy Mulcahy’s new track ‘You Could Walk Across The Shannon’ is, as the name suggests inspired by the River Shannon in his home city.

‘You Could Walk Across The Shannon’ is about overcoming the impossible. It’s a musical representation of being an underdog in a vicious race; it’s the rare ability to walk across a riverbed at low-tide. I want to inspire people who are suffering, people who are sad and feel like there is no point. This music was inspired by nature, people and my overcoming depression.” – Paddy Mulcahy on the track.
