Featuring vocalists Lisa Kelly, Chloë Agnew and newest member Lisa Lambe along with violinist Máiréad Nesbitt, the group has won the hearts of fans with what critics are calling an "uplifting," "breathlessly dramatic" and "beyond captivating" concert experience, according to the band's biography.
"Songs From the Heart" features a mix of Irish classics, contemporary covers and original compositions, including renditions of Jimmy Webb's "The Moon's a Harsh Mistress," Billy Joel's "Goodnight My Angel," "Amazing Grace" and Irish classics "My Lagan Love" and "Galway Bay."
