Camille O'Sullivan - The Architect Of Song

Camille O'Sullivans life offstage has been as fascinating and captivating as she is on it. Her father, a dashing racing car driver, falling in love with her French mother in Monaco. The family moving to rural Cork and her exposure to music through her sister's bedroom wall, a near fatal car accident, a potential career as an architect and of course her incredible career as one of our most beloved performers and interpreters of songs by some of the greatest of them all. Her story is an incredible one as is her passion for the music that has shaped it. Enjoy!

Camille's Albums:

David Bowie - The Rise And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - The Boatman's Call

Bob Dylan - Blood On the Tracks

Recorded History, hosted by Ed Smith, is a series where you get to hear about the lives and histories of your favourite artists… and theirs.

New episodes released every Sunday feature Ed in conversation with homegrown and international musicians, writers, artists and creatives about the three records that have defined their lives. This isn’t yet another podcast highlighting the coolest, edgiest or most rarefied records people have in their collection – it’s not even just for people “in the know”. This is a podcast for everyone, where we celebrate the personal relationship people have with the music they listen to.

You'll hear some unexpected musical choices, featuring forgotten favourites from across the musical spectrum from rock, to house, to pop alongside fascinating personal histories from our guests.

Whether it’s an album that soundtracked their first breakup, a song they danced to at a wedding or a cassette they wore down while learning to drive – Ed warmly and humorously guides his guests through their musical memories.

Created and executive produced by Dee Reddy for GoLoud, the show is proudly supported by TheRecordHub.com
