Salon Concerts Chicago presents – Moya Brennan and her Band
Irish American Heritage Center Sunday, November 5
Moya Brennan – First Lady of Celtic Music and the voice of Clannad Music is touring internationally to showcase her new studio album Canvas.
Brennan’s effortless vocals and timeless music pay homage not only to her vibrant traditional Irish heritage but also her grasp of contemporary forms. This is in evidence on Canvas, co-written with her children, Aisling and Paul, who are in her band, along with Irish harp and violin virtuosos, Cormac de Barra and Lia Wright.
With Clannad, Brennan rose to prominence with a pioneering approach to traditional music which has garnered them 15 million record sales worldwide and countless awards. Their sound has since become the benchmark for the Celtic music genre. Her solo career has continued that success with 9 albums and a live show that has developed into an audio and visual spectacle with rhythm, atmosphere and vibrant harmony.
The Salon Concerts series is dedicated to providing its audience with opportunities to listen to high-quality Irish music performed by talented musicians in an intimate and friendly concert setting.
The Salon Concert featuring Moya Brennan and her band is Sunday, November 5 at 5pm. Tickets are $25 for adults and teens and children 18 and under are free. The Academy of Irish Music Performing Group will perform an opening set.

Salon Concerts Chicago​ presents Moya Brennan and her band at the Irish American Heritage Center​ Sunday, November 5 at 5pm.

Moya Brennan – First Lady of Celtic Music​ and the voice of Clannad Music​ will be touring internationally to showcase her new studio album Canvas.

Her effortless vocals and timeless music pay homage not only to her vibrant traditional Irish heritage but also her grasp of contemporary forms. This is very much in evidence on her new album which was largely co-written with her daughter and son, Aisling (25) and Paul (23) who are both in her band along with Irish harp and violin virtuosos, Cormac De Barra and Lia Wright.

With Clannad, Moya rose to prominence with a pioneering approach to traditional music which has garnered them 15 million record sales worldwide and a string of awards, including a Grammy in 1998. Their sound has since become the benchmark for the Celtic music genre. Sister Enya joined Clannad for a time before pursuing her own successful career.

Moya’s solo career has continued that success with 9 albums to her credit and more in the pipeline. Her live show has developed into a visual (as well as sound) spectacle with rhythm, atmosphere and vibrant harmony.

The Academy of Irish Music Performing Group will perform a brief opening set.

The Salon Concerts series is dedicated to providing its audience with opportunities to listen to high-quality Irish music performed by talented musicians in an intimate and friendly concert setting.

The Salon Concert featuring Moya Brennan and her band is Sunday, November 5 at 5PM. Tickets are $25 for adults, and teens and children 18 and under are free.
Tickets now available online here: https://irish-american.org/event/salon-concerts-chicago-presents-moya-brennan-and-her-band/

We want to thank Laura Coyle​ for another beautiful Salon Concerts Chicago poster!

#TBT to 1982 and 1992, “Theme from Harry’s Game” #VoiceofClannad Moya Brennan Nov 5th #IAHC

#TBT to 1982 and again in 1992, when the “Theme from Harry’s Game” was released and re-released. The lyrics are in the Irish language, and the song is to date the only British hit single ever to have been sung entirely in Irish.The chorus, “Fol lol the doh fol the day, Fol the doh fol the day,” is ancient Irish mouth-music which is common in traditional music.” Moya Brennan – First Lady of Celtic Music, the #VoiceofClannad will be returning for Moya Brennan and Her Band Salon Concert November 5th! Tickets available now!
