Celtic Woman

 

Named Celtic Woman to represent the essence of a Celtic female performer, the group of four women celebrates Ireland’s history through a fresh fusion of traditional Irish music and contemporary songcraft.

 

Accompanied by a robust ensemble that includes Irish dancers, bagpipers, and a full band playing an array of traditional Celtic instruments, Chloë Agnew, Tara McNeill, Megan Walsh and Muirgen O’Mahony are now touring North America as part of the ‘Postcards from Ireland‘ Tour.

Grey Eagle Event Centre is the only Canadian venue in their 2022 world tour.

 

 

Celtic Woman made its American television debut in early 2005 with a self-titled PBS concert special, which captured a sold-out performance at the Helix in Dublin. The group’s debut CD reached #1 on Billboard’s World Music Chart and occupied the top slot for an unprecedented 81 weeks and remained there until the release of Celtic Woman’s second album, 2006’s A Christmas Celebration, which cemented Celtic Woman’s spot at the top for a total of 112 consecutive weeks.

Celtic Woman has performed for three U.S. Presidents and appeared twice at the White House, including the 2009 National Christmas Tree Lighting.

Celtic Woman has sold over ten million CDs and DVDs, making it the only all-female act to achieve multi-platinum success in the classical crossover and world music genres during the past decade. Named Billboard’s #1 World Music Artist of the Year six times, twelve of the studio CDs have debuted at #1 on Billboard’s World Album chart. Celtic Woman has also scored two Top 10 debuts on Billboard’s influential album chart and five Top Five DVDs on Billboard’s Top Video chart, as well as achieving platinum-level sales in nine countries.

The group will be performing in Calgary on Sunday, May 22nd.
