When you are going through particularly dark times, all you want is someone to shine a light and show you the way.
That is the theme behind the debut single from Drogheda singer/songwriter Kelley McArdle, whose song Shine a Light in aid of the Rape Crisis Centre, is released next week.
A former Voice of Ireland contestant, the new single is based on a very dark period of her life when she turned to the centre for support. I had just endured the worst year of my life when I wrote this song, and I know how scary it can be when you re going through it, and I went looking for a song for comfort, and couldn t find one, says Kelley. So, I put my thoughts on paper, and wrote one myself, and it really helped me to start healing. My hope is that this song resonates with someone who is struggling right now and shows them that there truly is a light at the end of the tunnel .
