The Works Presents… Moya Brennan

From singing in her Father’s pub in Meenaleck to the great theatres in the world, Clannad – singing mostly in Irish – sold over 15 million albums.

Over the years the multi-award winning band has taken Irish music and the Irish language to a worldwide audience. Fusing elements of traditional Irish music and more contemporary folk, new age and rock they have created a beautifully unique and ethereal sound which combines haunting melodies and mesmerising vocals to transcend the sands of time whilst appealing to a worldwide audience of all ages.

The programme airs on RTÉ One, Thursday November 28th at 11.15pm.
