DESCRIPTION:

Irish-born Americana artist Danny Burns burst onto the national scene with the release of his early 2019 debut album North Country. Two decades before releasing the project, Burns kicked off his career as a traveling Folk singer, logging shows on both sides of the Atlantic. He’s been on the road ever since, sharpening a sound that mixes the folk traditions of his native Ireland with diverse American influences. “Nothing But a Child” is about the faith to get through another day with hope in our hearts. “I’ve always loved this song,” says Danny. An opportunity finally came to cut it and he thought Áine would be a great voice to add to the production.

For Danny Burns, Christmas has always been about family and the true nostalgia of the season. That inspiration is on full display with his remake of his friend Steve Earle’s “Nothing But A Child.” He enlisted his wife, fellow Irish powerhouse vocalist Aine Burns. Together their voices blend like a warm blanket in front of a fireplace on a snowy Christmas Eve night. The song takes a more serious tone, recalling the birth of Jesus Christ and how it also relates to modern-day society
