DONNA TAGGART

Donna Taggart is an Irish singer-songwriter in the Folk, Americana genre. Combining hauntingly beautiful vocals with a unique and sensitive interpretation of songs, as well as a strong audience connection, Donna has been touted as the new Eva Cassidy and widely compared to iconic singers Alison Krauss, Sinead O’Connor and Norah Jones.

Donna is well known for her impassioned and moving ballads. Her distinctively sensitive, yet powerful voice entrances listeners.

The greatest artists are able to express both the harsh realities of life, as well as the joy. Donna’s early career influenced her song-writing as she witnessed first-hand the darker side of life while working in a refuge centre for women and children affected by domestic violence. Donna then worked as a youth worker for young people at risk of homelessness and then as a behavioural therapist to children with autism. Her caring nature and dedication to helping others, has shaped the artist she is today.
