Tina Mulrooney is a harpist and traditional Irish ballad singer from Co, Clare in the rugged west of Ireland.

Tina has and still performs through out the summer months for the past 23 years at the world famous Cliffs of Moher and is now one of the controversial licensed musicians on the site. In the Spring of 2006, Clare co council issued all the musicians including Tina with notices to vacate the site and that music was never to be heard live at the Cliffs again. Tina and a number of other musicians began campaigning to save their livelihoods and to keep music alive on what was to become the new Cliffs of Moher experience. Their campaign became worldwide knowledge and the papers and TVs brought their stories into thousands of homes nationally and internationally. Clare county council then had to meet with the group and licenses were issued to a certain number of long term musicians. Overall the last few years have proved that the musicians are very welcome by tourists from all over the globe.
