Who are some of the best Celtic singers or groups?

Question

I have recently taken a liking to Celtic music like Loreena McKennitt and Enya. I'm not really looking for the pub-songs from Ireland but more of the gaelic or 'pop gaelic'.

Answer 1

Mary Black

Shanae (sp?) O'Connor

Clannad

The Celtic Myst CD has a variety

also, check at a specialty store that has a large Irish section for the gaelic stuff

Answer 2

Try Ashley McIsaac. There are several other Canadian Celtic singers you might like too.
Natalie McMaster
The Barra McNeils
The Ennis Sisters
Celtic Attack
Celtae
Men of the Deeps

and my favourite...Great Big Sea

Check out the website 'Canadian Celtic Music.' It's loaded with info about great Celtic groups and has a ton of group official websites.

Answer 3

Celtic Women

Answer 4

I just saw a special on PBS called Celtic Women. I'm not sure that they're the kind of Celtic you're talking about but I thought they were pretty cool to watch.

Answer 5

My fav is Altan (study internet). i'm biased because of the fact Keiron is my cousin! yet that aside, attempt The Dubliners, The Corries, the two Scots and regrettably now deceased (They co-wrote Flower of Scotland) and Enya, earlier of Clannad, additionally a cousin!). It would desire to run in the family members! intense answer. Altan and Enya are the two from Co. Donegal(Gweedore) and the Corries from Edinburgh. Met, danced and have been given p---ed with all of them over various years. stable to have the enquiry.I wish I had their funds, different than for The Corries!
