Music video of 'Shed My Skin' from the Rory Faithfield album 'Blood, Bones & Soul'.
(Shot by David O'Rourke on location in County Dublin & County Meath, Ireland.
Starts at Bull Island, Dublin, proceeds through Ballymun, Clontarf, Malahide, Phoenix Park, and through Trim in County Meath. 2004.)
I've lived in Dublin for years but I grew up in Australia.
I write songs and I'm into music, words and unseen forces.
Also, I'm curious...my life started out digging up stuff in the backyard and looking under rocks by the sea for signs of life...nothing has changed...
