'MARIAH CAREYS IRISH ROOTS'
Before the chart-topping anthems and five-octave legend status, Mariah Carey carried Irish roots through her mother, opera singer Patricia Carey.
With a heritage tied back to Ireland, the global superstar blends diva glamour with a strand of Celtic lineage.

'DUBLIN & MONAGHAN BOMBINGS'
On May 17, 1974, four no-warning bombs exploded in Dublin and Monaghan.

'IRELAND'S LOST ROCK ERA'
Ireland’s late 60s and early 70s rock scene had more depth than most people realise — from psychedelic outsiders to blues-heavy club bands and early prog pioneers.
Turn them up, play them loud, because these were the Irish bands building the sound before Irish rock hit the global stage.

'THIS MAN IS MY GREAT-GREAT GRANDFATHER' (Part 2)
When I began my search for my bilogical beginnings 5 years ago, I didn't know what I was getting myself into. Now, after working as a tour guide/researcher for over 10 years now, I was delighted to see parts of it come to life.
Here, we leave the city slicking Guinness life of my post from last week behind. Instead, we go to the rural heartlands of 'Land War' era County Kildare.
