Live, LIVE, Love (Pronounced: Live-Lyve-Love) is the new live album from Clara Rose and her band plus special guests.
The album was recorded over two shows in Arthur’s Blues and Jazz Club (Dublin) and The Garage Theatre (Monaghan) in the spring of 2020. With the help of funding from the Music Industry Stimulus Package from First Music Contact Clara brought the raw sound files to Les Keye in Arad Studios (Dublin) and they embarked on a magical mystery tour of music, mixing and mastering to produce this album.
You can see the video for the album single, ‘Throw the Dice’ on the Clara Rose Channel – YouTube with footage from the live shows. The single is available to download from Bandcamp.

Clara Rose and a band of friends will launch her new single, ‘Callin for the Kid‘ over a run of 2 shows this July 2025. This song is different from previous releases and a special one for Clara as it was inspired by her late Grandfather Eamon who was a musician and loved Cowboy movies. His nickname was ‘The Kid’, hence the name of the song, ‘Callin for the Kid’. It was recorded with Clara’s parents Alan and Liz Monahan with Cathy and Marion McEvoy in Marion’s studio, Panchord studios. Marion McEvoy engineered and mixed the track. What follows is a beautiful trip of nostalgia through voices, guitars, mandolin, fiddle and whistling! It will be available for Download from Bandcamp on Friday 12th July. Details and ticket links for the shows are below.
Friday 18th July in The Backroom of The Cobblestone, Smithfield, Dublin
Clara Rose has released a new single, ‘Tightrope Walkers’ off her forthcoming album entitled, “The Offering” (Release February 2018)
The song is a passionate tale of a type of love and the re-igniting of creativity following loss of that love.
‘Tightrope Walkers’ is performed by Clara Rose and her stellar band and features Paula Higgins on backing vocals. It was recorded and produced by Gavin Glass of Orphan Recordings.
‘Tightrope Walkers’ is the first single off her second solo album. It is accompanied by a video produced and directed by Mark Watson (Not Just a Pawn Productions) with special thanks to Lauren Trainor and Davi Hora Galway Community Circus.
Her new music has taken a turn in the road, steering more towards melodic folk/roots but still tinted with the blues and always with ‘that’ unmistakable voice, the songstress: Clara Rose.
