Her mournful, unadorned reading of Fáinne Geal An Lae is particularly affecting, and her musky interpretation of Sandy Denny’s Who Knows Where the Time Goes is evidence of a keenly tuned ear. Sweet echoes of Gillian Welch and Alison Krauss haunt Pretty Bird.”- Siobhán Long, The Irish Times, 2/3/’07 Type of Label: None |
