Karan Casey is one of the most instantly recognisable, alluring and original voices in all of world music. The subtle and sensitive instrumentation and arrangements on her tracks illuminate Casey's voice and illustrate just what she can do with her magical instrument. Touring her new album ‘Distant Shore’ Karan showcases her superb talent for interpreting Traditional Irish material and ability to bring her considerable traditional song training to bear on contemporary material by songwriters such as English rocker Billy Bragg, American bluegrass/traditional artists Tim O’Brien and Darrell Scott and Irish singer/songwriter John Spillane and poet Louis de Paor.
