Clare Cunningham Clare Cunningham Nashville Hailing from a tiny rural village called Collon, in Co Louth, Ireland, Clare is an independent award winning singer/songwriter, performing and recording artist. Clare uses her platform to bring awareness on all mental health matters while being a spiritual and physical advocate too. Having faced a lot of adversities in her own life, Clare feels it’s her duty to give back to her listeners and be real, raw and honest to help de-stigmatize the conversations around mental health including addiction, suicide, anxiety, depression and many more problems our world is facing. Her latest EP ''MERCY'', released September 2022 does exactly just this. Clare exclaims ‘If I can leave this world a little better off than when I entered, I’ll know I fulfilled my life’s purpose. I just want to be a voice for those who feel they can't express themselves or are too afraid to speak up, and be a vessel of inspiration, hope, love, truth and faith for those around me so that nobody ever feels like they are in this alone’. Clare is very thankful and proud of restoring her relationship with Jesus (2020) and stepped into writing faith based songs as part of her new journey and is also on a mission to show that her outer appearance does not reflect what’s on the inside. ‘I want people to get to know me and spend a few moments in my presence before judgement is passed but I know GOD uses me as an example and I am fine with surprising people’. Clare has worked alongside non profit organisations ‘The Nantucket Project’ and ‘The Volunteers of America’ and has helped many charities to help those in need.
