Boy In A Boat released in 2015 is a collection of original songs by multi Instrumentalist Barry Kerr.
‘A sweet warm tender emphatic embracing and enlightening album that sails you away on a visual journey around the world into history and back in a gentle circle, a musical screenplay that you can put your own faces to. Pauline Scanlon’s voice lures you onto the beach, not the rocks, do your heart some good, buy this.” Damien Dempsey
