  • Description

    New solo release from the lead vocalist of Danú. Featuring Oisín McAuley, John Doyle, Gerry O'Beirne, Shane McGowan, Éamonn Doorley, Tony Byrne, Julie Fowlis and Billy Mag Fhloinn. Muireann Nic Amhlaoibh is best know for her work with Irish super-group Danú - recent recipients of the BBC Folk Music award for Best Band and a group considered by many to be the most significant new traditional band in Ireland. On DAYBREAK, her solo debut, Muireann reaches into traditional Irish, American old time and contemporary folk repertoire for her inspiration. Stand out tracks include her rendition of Gerry O'Beirne's "Western Highway", the trad standard "The Parting Glass" and an unforgettable cover of Richard Thompson's and Tim Finn's "Persuasion".
