—————————————————————— Irish singer-songwriter Karan Casey has been blazing a trail for over 25 years. A lover of ballads, love songs and searing versions of social justice songs, fond of a good yarn, she has toured the world making deep connections with her audience connecting via Ireland’s past but crucially repositioning women and songs in a universal and a modern setting.
Karan Casey has long been recognized as one of the most innovative, provocative and
imitated voices in Irish traditional and folk music. Singing songs charged with a sense of social responibility in a career spanning over 25 years, Karan has released 7 solo albums as well as an album for children, a duet album with John Doyle and numerous contributions to other artists’ projects. She has toured extensively throughout North America, Europe and Japan.
“Karan Casey’s latest album is revelatory. She’s always been a singer of songs that tell a story and show their muscle … This is a strikingly three-dimensional work that stands the test of intensive and repeated listening … A vivid and dazzling snapshot of Casey invincible, at the height of her powers.” —Siobhan Long, Irish Times
"...the Irish equivalent of Emmylou Harris."
WASHINGTON POST
"The most soulful singer to emerge in Irish traditional music in the past decade."
