Collaborators, Evelyn Kallansee and Irish music heavyweight Declan Sinnott have announced today the release date of their new seasonal single 'Make For Joy'.
Declan Sinnott, veteran guitar player of the Irish music scene who worked along side the likes of the Horslips, Christy Moore and Moving Hearts while also collaborating with the inimitable Mary Black for over 12 years, has today announced the release of a new single 'Make For Joy' along with collaborator Evelyn Kallansee.
'Make For Joy' is set for release on Monday the 27th of November.
The second single Kallansee and Sinnott have written together, 'May for Joy' is the sophomore offering to their gentle and sentimental debut track 'Who Has Coloured You?' released earlier this year.
Not content with resting on their songwriting laurels, the pair have released 'Make for Joy', four weeks after their debut 'Who Has Coloured You', a beautiful Autumnal/Wintry song, with a positive and uplifting energy, perfectly contrasting the time of year.
'Make for Joy' brings light to the darker days, at the turn of the year, an essential track that we all need as we head for the winter solstice.
Evelyn and Declan started working together in the dark Winter of 2020. Now they’re ready to step into the light. They have written and recorded an album together and are excited to release it in the upcoming months.

This two distinctly differently musical paths have joined together to create a delightful harmonious creative collaboration which provides that little glimpse of light as we buckle down for darker days.
