Transport yourself to the heart of County Wicklow with Through the Gates of Kilmacurragh, an original acoustic composition by Pocket Ireland. This track was composed as the sonic companion to the viral image "The Rhodadendrons Have Begun Their Bloom," capturing the specific feeling of walking beneath the ancient boughs of the National Botanic Gardens at Kilmacurragh.
The Story Behind the Sound
Every Spring, something magical happens at Kilmacurragh. Along the historic "Broad Walk"—originally planted by Janet Acton in the 1870s—the towering Rhododendron 'Altaclerense' drop their petals to create a surreal, vibrant magenta carpet. This song is the soundtrack to that walk.
With lyrics that speak of "sunlight filtering through" and "velvet shoes" on soft petals, the track mirrors the quiet majesty of the "Double Avenue," where Irish Yews and rhododendrons have stood side-by-side for over 150 years. It is a gentle, folk-inspired escape that invites you to slow down and breathe in the emerald air of the Garden County.
