Biography

Ethereal Celtic vocalist Méav first rose to prominence as a featured soprano soloist with the choral group Anuna, which was featured in several of the biggest productions of Riverdance. In addition to extensive touring with Anuna, Méav also performed on several occasions with the Irish National Chamber and Concert Orchestras. That varied background was reflected on Méav's self-titled debut album, released in 2000 by the Hearts of Space label; it featured both traditional Celtic songs and classical-style pieces, plus chiefly orchestral arrangements and a dramatic new age sensibility. 2003's Silver Sea and 2006's Celtic Journey and Celtic Woman brought those themes to an even larger audience.
