Welcome to The World Inside www.fionakernaghan.com

So the web site, www.fionakernaghan.com is up and "Shadow Wine and Truth Lilies" is on sale, too! Even though the official release date is still just around the corner... Thanks for stopping by and checking it out! And thank you for all the inquiries about how to buy the new record. Hopefully you'll find our pay pal facility easy to use. As you can probably tell from my blogs I'm so psyched to have the record done and out in the world! And I can't help feeling relieved that mum and dad seem to like it, too. It's very un rock n roll of me to still enjoy my parent's approval, isn't it?! Although, I'm not able to do everything the way they'd like it... It's really funny, every time I tell mum about an interview or something I have the chance to do she says "oh, that's nice! Just don't swear when you're talking to them! Be nice..." Well, I'm not gonna make any guarantees there! lol.

It always surprises me to hear which tracks and songs people like most. Like with my 66 year old dad who'se sung trad country for 30 years - his favourite is not the mellow stuff, it's the more in your face single about life being "hard core", You Can Call Me "Baby". Bizarre, hey? It'll be interesting to see what people, especially in the music industry, think of the style of stuff I'm writing and singing now... I think there's this misconception floating around that because my brother, Lee and sister, Tania, are so well known for singing country that I must surely be a country singer, too. But I think it'd be flat out misleading and unfair to let people think that "Shadow Wine and Truth Lilies" is a country record. Oh, speaking of which! There's a Facebook group you might wanna check out called "Can It Be Kernaghan and Not Country?" Well, anyway...let's not obsess too much about labels and definitions here. It'd be cool if you could just let the music happen to you. And if you can make it to one of the upcoming gigs - I hope you can come and let yourself happen to me.

Rugby tackle happiness to the ground, groovers!
