The Irish American Song Project is the creation of Melanie Beth Curran as she collects and performs the lost folk songs of Irish America in the 21st century. The project seeks to save rare and endangered songs and musical traditions which were born in Irish enclaves in the United States. Through live music performance and storytelling, zine creation, creative writing and filmmaking, Curran infuses the practice of folklore collection and song research with boundless energy for the 21st century.
