I was listening to the online radio show Folkscene (one of my favorites -- www.folkscene.com) and heard part of a recording of "Casadh an tSugain" by a young woman from the Aran Islands, Lasairfhiona Ni Chonaola. Her voice was incredibly pure and sparkling, and the arrangement was simple and beautifully done. Her website says that her album, called AN RAICÍN ÁLAINN, includes some traditional songs and some written by her father. I've emailed Clannadh Records in Dublin to see how I can order it. Has anyone else heard of her?

Aloha,
Mark
