Writer at Irish music magazine and Irish american news. "As good an evening as I've ever attended ! Artists provoke, move you, make you feel; to steal a Da Vinci line, nothing was lacking, nothing was superfluous. Often symphonic, often mesmeric, always sublime, from opening to closing note. If you attend nothing else this Spring try and catch one of these golden evenings with this exceptionally gifted trinity. Just close your eyes, listen, and be. Take a bow, Maurice Lennon, Ciara Brennan and Chris Dawson " – Noel O'Grady "quality celtic/folk", "sterling results!" fROOTS Magazine "truly creative whilst retaining an enormous respect and understanding of the Irish tradition" – fROOTS Magazine “all-Ireland champion fiddler and singer and her performance here shows clearly why she deserves both these titles.” fROOTS Magazine
