Acclaimed music producer & session pianist Cian Sweeney is excited to announce the launch of his latest artistic endeavor, “As If I Always Knew.”

And we are over the moon to be one his chosen venues to create this unique experience.

This project marks a return to his roots as a pianist, presenting raw, live improvisations captured in their purest form, with no editing or production enhancements.

THE ANTITHESIS TO AI

The project is a culmination of Cian’s long-standing relationship with the piano, an instrument he has played since childhood. For years, Cian felt the pressure to adapt his playing to keep up with trends or in order to “get the gig”. But As If I Always Knew represents a deliberate departure from this mindset.

As Cian explains, “This project is my attempt to capture my true voice—unapologetically live, unedited, and raw.” The music draws from the unfiltered expression found in the late-night improvisations that have been part of Cian’s creative practice for years.

With As If I Always Knew, Cian seeks to reconnect with his audience on a more intimate level. While his successful work as a producer has garnered over 130 million streams, this project shifts focus back to his roots as a pianist and artist in his own right. The project’s unique title reflects the organic nature of its creation. As Cian notes, “There’s a certain flow to it—like these pieces were always there, waiting to be shared. It’s As If I Always Knew.”

Fans will have exclusive access to new music through the project’s YouTube channel and Bandcamp, as well as early announcements for upcoming live performances throughout 2025, for which subscribers to the project’s mailing list will receive priority access.

I am delighted to invite my friend Róisín back again for another gathering in TheYurt.

This time, we’ve chosen a Sunday evening workshop for adults.

✨ Sunday 26th October | 5.30–8.30pm ✨
Join us under the dome of TheYurt for an evening of creativity, movement, and deep relaxation. What a beautiful way to begin your week.

We’ll start with gentle mindful movement to ease tension and connect with the body. Then Róisín will guide us on a powerful visualization journey to balance our chakras with particular emphasis on the root chakra before leading a jewellery-making session. Using crystal beads, you’ll mindfully create your own unique beaded bracelet to take home. There are plenty of natural beads to choose from, each with significant purpose and meaning.

We’ll take a short break in the annex for some tea and a fresh bake before laying ourselves in TheYurt, cocooned in warm blankets for a 60-minute soothing sound bath meditation .
The healing vibrations of gongs, crystal bowls, drums, and other instruments help us surrender with ease and realign with the new season

This is an evening of community, self care and renewal. We hope you can take the time to join us.

No experience is required, just a desire to become more present and grounded.

We look forward to welcoming you

Pamela will then guide us through a deeply restorative Sound Bath Meditation — a powerful way to regulate the nervous system through sound.

Benny is Back!!!
From Fri Oct 3rd, Pam and Benny return to TheYurt twice monthly, on Friday evenings 6.30-8.45pm.

We have been offering these sessions in the beautiful Yurt for 7 years. There is no space like it. Inside you will feel supported, relaxed and cared for.

The Sound Bath Sessions are a sensational experience. With fairy lights above you, warm blankets resting on you, the smell of natural incense or oils, the sounds of birds nesting in for the evening or the rain on the tent, you will soon feel able to relax.
When the Sound Bath begins, you will literally feel sound move through you.

Come with an openness to relax, to let go, and open your heart.

The frequencies and vibrations of these therapeutic instruments will wash through you to soften the symptoms of stress, release tightness and tension, shift and shake your energy, and calm your nervous system.

We begin by settling into TheYurt, cocooning ourselves in blankets, supported by a bolster and cushion. After a guided relaxation, we can let go of all distractions and come home to ourselves. Then we journey with sound…….

Each person will also receive one to one sound therapy with Tibetan Bowls and tuning forks to target specific areas of the body to improve circulation, release energy blocks and soothe the entire system.

We reintegrate slowly and share a warm cup of tea before closing the session.
