Stephanie recorded Breathe Easy which is a song Miles Gaffney wrote in memory of his 24 year old niece Ciara O’Gorman who sadly passed away shortly after giving birth to Rocco, as a result of contracting Cystic Fibrosis. Miles reached out to Stephanie because he felt it needed female vocals, as it would be coming from the point of view of Ciara singing to her new-born child. Released only 4 days ago on 65 Roses Day, it already has upwards of 6,500 listens. The track was released with the hope of bringing attention to Cystic Fibrosis and raising funds for Cystic Fibrosis Ireland.
