Anna's Anchor goes 'nautical' with debut

Anna’s Anchor will release his long-awaited debut album, Nautical Miles via Never Meant Records, on September 23.

ANNACOTTY-based indie musician, Anna’s Anchor will release his long-awaited debut album, Nautical Miles via Never Meant Records, on September 23.

Anna’s Anchor, the alias of University of Limerick graduate Marty Ryan, welcomed the new release.

“A nautical mile is a little bit longer than a mile. I find that with everything I do, be it academically, work or music related, I always have to work a little harder to get where I want to. Things generally don’t fall into place for me, I’m a grafter and struggle through, but I generally get there in the end and that’s what Nautical Miles means to me,” he explained. 

This follows Marty’s single Signal Tower and eight-track The Islands EP. In 2015, Marty went to eight different Irish islands, and recorded and produced a track, inspired by each visit.
