Billow Wood are a male/female Irish band who fuse their unique brand of instrumentation with multi-vocal harmonies. Taking inspiration from Irish folk melodies and modern contemporary rhythms, they are creating their own fusion sound.  
Their new song “Maisie” is the perfect mix of old and new, telling an old story that has been repeated so often up to the present day. Maisie O’Donnell was an Irish woman who was born in Co.Mayo in the West of Ireland in 1909. Like so many others at the time, she left Ireland to seek a life elsewhere, and made a new home for herself in America. Although she was destined to spend the rest of her life in the US, she maintained her roots to the small village of Behy Beg, just outside Ballina, and always called it home.  
We wonder how much her homeland has changed since she left, and have we changed it for the better or for the worse?
