A new studio album from the former Runrig frontman, Donnie Munro - his first for four years. He has been recently been touring solo and with The Donnie Munro Band, and has a large and faithful following both at home and abroad, particularly in Germany.
The album is centred on themes of migration and movement emerging from the title track, Heart Of America. This song was written following a journey across the north eastern states of the US with his wife and two youngest children, at the height of the Iraq War, and an earlier visit to Ellis Island immigrant reception centre.
