THE HOMEBIRD SESSIONS

"The Homebird Sessions are just beautiful. Elaine has such an infectious personality - the positivity is just glowing from her! And she is a great interviewer - really enjoyable! Do check out Elaine’s lives on Facebook - she’s just lovely! I really could listen to that Glaswegian accent all day - so positive, so upbeat!" - EVE BLAIR - BBC Radio ULSTER

'THE HOMEBIRD SESSIONS' is a Facebook Live Series started by Elaine during Lockdown to provide a place for music lovers to come each Wednesday for a 'musical hug' - somewhere they could check in regularly, feel part of an on-line community, hear some songs and listen to the stories behind them.

With three series under it's belt, the 'Homebird' Community has grown while managing to maintain that welcoming 'feel-good' factor and even includes the opportunity to get involved with live interactive Q&As.

An 'artist's artist', while Series 1 was all about the stories behind her own original songs, in Series 2 & 3 Elaine expands on that to delve into the stories behind some of her fellow Songwriter buddies and has a mix of music from both artists for you to enjoy!

With her warm, infectious personality shining through Elaine chats with some superb Singer Songwriters including Mike Mckenzie, Boo Hewerdine, David Latto, Adriana Spina, Yvonne Lyon, David Starr, James Edwyn, Simon James and Jesse Terry..

The transcripts from this Series have become a regular feature in the on-line Songwriters and Composers Magazine Scotland online magazine.
