Moya Brennan

I just came back from her show tonight in Toronto, and I thought she ( and her band, especially the girl on the fiddle ) was amazing.
High quality stuff.
Do you guys know her? If yes, what do you think of her?
Is she popular back home?

I have only seen her with Clannad and the last time was in Dublin in 97ish i think, she has an absolutely amazing voice, anytime i go to NewGrange i always think of their music, it represents our homeland perfectly, enchanting and magickal! http://www.moyabrennan.com

Never heard of her.

I'm a big fan of Irish music and dance. I know Ms. Brennan from her work with Clannad. Now that she's taking off on her own, it should be interesting.

I went to see the Lord of the Dance show when it came here, and loved it. Nice to see something culturally rooted rather than just Pop, Rock, Metal, Techno, etc.

She is Enya's sister.

Okay, now I feel like a total dimwit. I have about 4 or 5 Enya CDs. I should have known who she was. Do you know of any good websites?

In my opinion she is less 'new age' than Enya (whom I like very much as well) but I prefer Moya's 'Celtic' style more.

Exactly, i find the music of Enya to have a very repetitive sounds.
