Ballygar singer songwriter Aimee Carty.
A young County Galway singer songwriter's fame continues to grow around the world.
Aimee Carty (20) from Ballygar released the fantastically catchy song ‘Two Days Into College' last December. Aimee, who is a student at University College Dublin, wrote the song about the challenges facing young people as they start third-level. The song has now been viewed over 25 million times on her TikTok page.
Kim Kardashian West’s eldest daughter, 10-year-old North West, was recently spotted lip synching the video. She has 18.5million followers.
The song was propelled into the international spotlight after a US basketball star shared the song with his two million plus followers on his TikTok page.
Duke University guard Jared McCain (19) posted a video singing an acapella version of Aimee’s song and captioning the video "Post workout jingles @Aimee Carty was elite with this”.
Her former secondary school, Colaiste Mhuire in Ballygar, is delighted with Aimee's success saying: “Congratulations to past pupil, music superstar, Aimee Carty on the incredible success of her single, ‘Two Days Into College’. Well done, Aimee, everyone in Coláiste Mhuire is proud of you.”
