An album full of exquisite vocals and virtuoso musicianship from across the Celtic diaspora, from artists like Irish singer Cara Dillon and French-Breton innovator Cécile Corbel infuse their music with strands of contemporary folk, Americana and more. This collection also considers Canadian artists, such as stellar name Teresa Doyle, who are re-inventing their Gaelic roots.
Bonus CD: Teresa Doyle - ‘Orrachan’
Orrachan is a collection of ancient Irish Gaelic songs. Teresa sings them with her trademark ethereal voice and effortlessly transports us to the beating heart of the Celtic world. Teresa is a resident of Maritime Canada, an area that has strong links with Ireland. Her own ancestral connection to Europe’s ‘Emerald Isle’ has provided the central inspiration for her career over the last 25 years.
