Peter Broderick returns with new EP The Wind That Shakes The Bramble.

It’s the mid 1800s in Ireland, and a local poet from Limerick by the name of Robert Dwyer Joyce has written a ballad called ‘The Wind That Shakes The Barley'. … A bullet pierced my true love’s side In life’s young spring so early And on my breast in blood she died While soft winds shook the barley …

The recurring imagery of the barley standing tall amidst the breeze was meant to symbolize the resilience of Irish people amidst oppressive British rule. In 2006, the song title and its theme served as the inspiration for a powerful and heartbreaking film starring Cillian Murphy. Now, in 2021, Peter Broderick pays homage once again, weaving this motif into his latest EP, The Wind That Shakes The Bramble.
