[Susan Hickey] has struck deep into the heart of the kind of spirited folk music that I love best ...Water Meets Sand is a musical journey well worth taking.

[Water Meets Sand] features excellent arrangements and those spine-tingling vocals by Susan that draw you into the songs (even if you are not a total Celtic-folk enthusiast, you will be amazed by the vocals). Susan Hickey is the Joni Mitchell of Celtic-folk music and I look forward to her next release.

Each selection on Water Meets Sand is in some way unique ... yet in another connected. Each tells us a story and invites us to enter the story being told. Listeners ...experience this CD not only with the ears but with the heart and soul ... While Water Meets Sand is officially Susan's first CD, it's by no means the work of a new or amateur artist. Susan's life experience as much as her musical talent and uncorrupted voice provide us with a musical offering to rival any professional or big label product on the market.

Ahhh...Salty air and friendly beer guzzling 'mates. Sounds just like the Celtic tradition. :)
