Cara Dillon
Cara has a incredibly rare talent that you only come across a handful of times in your whole life. Her gentle charm and natural personality combine with a mesmerizing gift to relate a great story through song and has helped her to defy borders, cultures and even languages. She is an emotive and captivating performer at the very top of her field and one has the feeling she'll be there for a very long time.
Cara Dillon was born in 1975 in Dungiven in County Derry, Northern Ireland. She grew up in a close musical family in an area steeped in Irish traditional music. She demonstrated a striking vocal ability from an early age winning the All Ireland Singing Trophy when only 14. Whilst she was still a teenager she went on to sing with Oige, De Dannan and from there, joined the highly lauded folk supergroup Equation in 1995. However, in 1996 Dillon left with original band member Sam Lakeman who she later married.
