Since the unexpected death of his wife last year, visionary Mark Mulcahy has been struggling to continue writing music and raise his three-year-old twin daughters. Thankfully, he has friends who can lend a hand. An amazing cast will appear on the tribute to Mulcahy’s wife, Ciao My Shining Star: The Songs of Mark Mulcahy. Set for a September 29th release date, all proceeds from the album will go towards helping Mulcahy in his time of need.
