As part of Taunton Literary Festival (organised by the brilliant Brendon Books), join award-winning singer, Cara Dillon, for this special event in which she’ll be discussing her debut book, Coming Home.
Published in March 2024, it is a deeply personal narrative that sees her reflecting on her remarkable family and deep connection to the people, culture and land of her native Co Derry in the North of Ireland, alongside captivating insights into her place in the world and her journey – both as an artist and a mother. Evolving from a collection of original poems which form the basis of her acclaimed new album (her first in over six years) in which she presents the pieces in a stunning blend of spoken word and song. In addition to the interview, Cara will perform 3 or 4 pieces accompanied by Sam Lakeman on guitar and piano.
