about

Rise Up! (On Her Shoulders - Ar A Guaillí - Air A Guailnean) is a multilingual track and accompanying music documentary released by Jen O'Brien featuring 13 different artists under the Gals on Fire! Collective. A celebration of the immense creativity, talent, skills and value of women working in the music industry, including lyricism, musical composition, production, mastering, photography, videography and visual art.

The track beautifully interweaves Irish and Scottish Gaelic voices, showcasing the languages as prominent within modern music composition while lyrically highlighting the historic underrepresentation of women historically to modern day.

The project created by Jen O’Brien was brought to fruition throughout the global pandemic, and as such represents the strength of effective collaboration between a diverse, genre and generationally spanning host of artists.
