“Boy in The Wild” Music Video Nomination
Dear Listeners,
Christy’s Music Video for Boy In The Wild from his recent album A Terrible Beauty, has won the top prize of Best Music Video, as well as Best Direction at the 2025 Shark Music Video Awards in London.
Christy remarked “Great achievement for Ellius Grace who directed and created, Mark Richardson of Claddagh who brought it together, the late Wally Page for writing and sharing this beautiful song. I’ve been gifted the song to sing, I added a few lines. It’s some privilege to be part of this development. How Wally would have enjoyed this whole scenario. He feels very close by these nights when I play ‘Boy in the Wild’ and ‘Smoke and Strong Whiskey.’
