Album Notes

DRUID vibrantly captures the essence of the modern Irish spirit. Through the years, Ireland’s people have spread their wings far beyond their island shores, influencing, enrapturing, and changing countless individuals and societies across the globe. DRUID is a salute to their Irishness and to all who have kept this core and substance alive – wherever they may dwell.

DRUID summons its audience along a musical journey, emerging from the haze of Ireland’s pre-Christian times, traveling the paths of oppression, famine, emigration, on to the “Celtic Tiger” economy, and finally resting on the hopes of the future. It is a celebration of passion for life: an epic tale of mankind’s determination and ability to shine ever brighter in the face of strife and misfortune.

The performers in DRUID each possess an exceptional talent, ranging in scope from Irish traditional to ballad to pop to classical. Brought together, they form a cohesive musical and vocal unit that is mesmerizing and uplifting, a unique concert experience that is as much Irish as it is Global.
