Eimear Quinn - Eurovision Song Contest Winner For “The Voice”. Talks About The Eurovision Contest, Anuna And Sir George Martin!

Episode Notes

Eimear Quinn is an incredibly talented Irish singer who won the Eurovision Song Contest in 1996 with the song “The Voice”. Her debut album brought her to the attention of Sir George Martin, legendary producer of The Beatles, who signed her to his publishing company. A 2020 orchestral version of “The Voice” was named by Prince Charles as one of his favorite songs.

My featured song in this episode is “The Gift (Juliet’s Song)” from the album Made In New York by my band, Project Grand Slam. Spotify link HERE.
