It Was During These Years She Discovered A Love For Film Scores And The Simple Yet Intelligent Folk Songs Of Woody Guthrie. 'What I Liked About Woody Guthrie Was The Reason He Wrote And How That Informed His Writing Style. It Had To Be Simple So The Political Songs Could Be Easily Remembered For The Sake Of The Cause Yet The Songs Where Also Very Smart. I Love That Combination In Art Simplicity That Goes Right To The Soul But Doesn't Have To Bypass The Brain On The Way.' After Leaving Liverpool She Moved To Northern Ireland And Continued To Write And Record A Few Small EPs Released Locally The First Being "Inside" In 1998 But It Was The 'Moonlight' EP 2003 Which Began To Get More Attention Internationally.
