Album Notes

The Browne Sisters & George Cavanaugh are one of the most popular Celtic music groups to perform across the United States. Their silvery harmonies, beautiful arrangements, and interesting personalities have created a permanently loyal and enthusiastic following, from their fellow Americans to homegrown Scots and Irish.

Diane, Pamela, and Laura's lead vocals and haunting harmonies are enriched by cousin George's rich, unaffected voice and original guitar style. The addition of Scotland's own John Allan on electric and acoustic guitar has also allowed the group to move more in the direction of their own still-easy-on-the-ears version of Celtic rock. This combined with their perennially popular arrangements of traditional and modern Gaelic songs, Scottish and Irish selections as well as original material, gives them a range of appeal and artistic expression unique in the world of Celtic entertainment.

The Browne Sisters & George Cavanaugh have opened for acts such as Andy M. Stewart and shared the stage with the likes of Seven Nations, Men of Worth, Clandestine, Alex Beaton, Alasdair Fraser and Seamus Kennedy.

They have been featured on other artists' recordings such as Alex Beaton's IN THE SCOTTISH TRADITION and KIDDING AROUND.

The group is currently heard on radio stations throughout the U.S., the Candian Broadcasting Company, the British Broadcasting Company and Scotland's Radio Caithness.

REVIEWS

Beautiful harmony!
author: Chris Wilson
The Browne sisters are blessed with stunningly melodic voices that give a new depth to many authentic classics like Four Green Fields and The Four Mairis. George Cavanaugh adds depth with his beautiful interpretation of Back Home in Derry and Wild Mountain Thyme. This album is a beautiful classic in the best Celtic/Scottish tradition.
