CD Reviews

Elegant and Haunting
Alex Perkins | Allegan, MI United States | 08/21/2008
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Before I bought this album, I had only heard bits and pieces from Karan Casey's myspace profile. It was enough to whet my appetite. I am so pleased with this album that it's hard to find the right words.



I am a new listener of hers having only heard her solo albums and never one by Solas, her old band. I absolutely love her voice. She is accompanied by very few instruments on this album, so her voice really shines.



The album is elegant, haunting, and sincere, not to meant powerful. Her words seep through your eardrums and will make you float. I am a fan of traditional music without a lot of modern flair. If you are too, you will love this album.



I also recommend these albums which I also own by Casey: Distant Shore, Seal Maiden: A Celtic Musical, Chasing the Sun, and The Winds Begin to Sing"
Understated and relevant.

"I've had the privilege of attending possibly five Karan Casey performances in the past 10 years.This should tell you that I am,in fact,a devotee.This woman,along with another great diva from the British Isles,June Tabor,are my preferred female vocalists.Karan Casey and June Tabor educate,entertain,and elicit emotion.This is Karan's best:austere,warm,appropriately produced,endearing,and vital.Karan wears and lives these songs.Bravo,another masterpiece from this fine interpreter of Ireland's past."

"Karan Casey is one Ireland's best female vocalists. "Ships In The Forest" is one of her mellowest Cds."
