The moving Sinéad O’Connor tribute song “Caged Birds” by Helen O’Shea and Liam Ó’Maonlaí of Hothouse Flowers has received a major endorsement by being added to the esteemed RTÉ Radio 1 Recommends List, ahead of what would have been O’Connor’s 59th birthday this December 8th. The powerful, poignant anthem, which also features Michelle Moore of the Bruce Springsteen E-Street Band Choir, producer Mark Swersky, Jack Daley, and Rob Clores, is taken from O’Shea’s upcoming album, ‘Songs In The Key Of O’, a loving tribute also honoring Dolores O’Riordan of The Cranberries. O’Shea wrote the Celtic-rock infused track, which includes Ó’Maonlaí’s distinctive vocals and soul-stirring piano, as an ode to O’Connor’s fearless spirit and courage in speaking out, a message of healing and a call for truth.
