Reviewed 2010-02-12
Angelic-voiced Irish songstress delivering Celtic folk/pop. Her voice is warm and crystal-clear and she has an effortless style that just sort of washes over you. Backed by acoustic guitar, whistle, piano
Beautiful stuff. In English & Gaelic.

1. Relaxed folk pop w/whistle & guitar. Warm, midtempo.
*2. Mid/upbeat story song w/a catchy, head-nodding beat.
*3. Slow, tragic ballad. Gentle voice backed by soft piano. Sigh…
4. Lightly upbeat story song. Guitar & vocals.
*5. Strings, piano, soft vocals. Sadly fragile, then picks up a bit.
6. Tripping guitar in a light midtempo love song.
7. Slow and gently mournful love song.
8. Fast vocals & strings. Driving and strong.
9. Slow, atmospheric and nostalgic. Really lovely. Nice piano.
10. Mid/upbeat w/solid strings & a warm folk pop style.
11. Gorgeous slow a capella Gaelic. Why can’t I sing like this?
