I don't know if this will be of interest to you. I am managing a Christmas Song Search on a website called Santa.net. The song search is in its third year. I am trying to attract more international songwriters to bring in more diversity. Certainly Ireland is way up on the list. Here is a link to it should you feel it is appropriate: Christmas (Holiday) Song Search Original Song Shwocase
