Screaming Orphans - Paper Daisies
Screaming Orphans are the four Diver sisters - Joan, Angela, Gr\xe1inne and Marie Th\xe9r\xe8se - with the good fortune to have been raised in the magic of Bundoran in County Donegal, Ireland. There is a great tradition of music to be found in Irish homes especially in the Gaeltacht or Irish-speaking areas which have produced the likes of Clannad, Enya and Mairead, Micheal and Triona Ni Dhomhnaill. The sisters' home was no exception. From an early age, the Diver sisters performed with their mother Kathleen Fitzgerald, a well-known C\xe9il\xed singer in Ireland, playing shows in Ireland, England and Germany. When the band hit their teenage years, they formed their own Celtic pop band, Screaming Orphans. The band\u2019s first pop/rock shows were at local surf festivals in Bundoran playing cover songs. During this time the band contributed a track to the Litmus Surf Movie that achieved cult status in the surf world in the following years. "Paper Daisies" is their new album due for release in August 2023.
