The landmark exudes extra charm at the moment for the modern indie harpist and singer-songwriter whose new single, Belfast Mona Lisa, it has inspired – the first draft written by her mother, Shona McCarthy, more than 20 years ago. “I picked up a tune on it quite quickly and immediately thought this instrument was really, really nice. “It is really a great time to be a harpist – especially with so many events, including the Belfast Fleadh, helping bring traditional instruments more into the popular mainstream. After her Irish tour, Dara heads across the Irish Sea again to Edinburgh Fringe. Belfast Mona Lisa is available to stream on Spotify, Apple Music, Deezer, YouTube Music, Tidal and Amazon Music.
