Correction! Alice was most enthusiastic about her niece Aine Byrne's recording that was played at the end of our show and mistakenly said it was an original composition. While we have great faith in Aine's ability to compose wonderful music, she did not in fact compose this one! Addicted to you is composed by Ryan Hennessy and Jimmy Rainsford from the Irish band, Picture This.
