about

This beautiful song, written by Brendan Graham, tells the story of the first immigrant to enter The USA through Ellis Island. Annie Moore, who was just 15 years old (although there is some dispute about her real age... records showing it to be in fact 17).
At the time... Ireland was still in recovery from the ravages of enforced famine conditions and many chose to flee to foreign lands in order to try to make a better life for themselves.
