biography

A show rather than a group, Celtic Thunder was conceived by Sharon Browne and written and arranged by Phil Coulter and designed as a contemporary exploration of Celtic music, which means it falls to the pop dance side of the spectrum more than it does to the traditional side. The show was staged, recorded, and filmed in Dublin in August of 2007 and featured five male vocalists, Damian McGinty (only 14 years old when the show was recorded), Keith Harkin, Paul Byrom, Ryan Kelly, and George Donaldson, rotating leads through a set of traditional and contemporary songs, several of them written by Coulter. A CD and DVD of the event appeared from Decca in 2008. ~ Steve Leggett, All Music Guide

  - For those who may not know, Celtic Thunder has just released a new album and dvd as of July 14, 2009. Both are entitled Take Me Home, and encompass several all-new tracks. The dvd was filmed live at the Casino Rama, in Canada on their spring tour this past March - May. The cd gives a glimpse into the new show, STORM, scheduled to be filmed this fall, as well as offering the new tracks seen on the dvd. I highly reccommend both, especially to those who loved their first two cds and dvd. You will be blown away.
