Celtic Woman is delighted to announce the release of our brand-new studio album ‘Postcards from Ireland’.
‘Postcards from Ireland’ – Celtic Woman’s new album and TV special - represents the sentiment they would like to share with their fans around the world. One of love, hope and expectation as the world looks towards getting back together again.
What better way to express these wishes than to write and send a postcard, but this postcard is written with the music and songs from Celtic Woman’s latest album.
Postcards from Ireland features 13 brand new songs, and is the group’s first new studio album since 2018’s Ancient Land. It features new arrangements of beautiful and iconic songs including The Dawning of the Day, Wild Mountain Thyme, The Galway Shawl and Black is the Colour among others.
We welcome back Chloë for a stunning version of Angel, Megan Walsh & Tara McNeill duet on The Lakes of Pontchartrain, and Susan McFadden performs the haunting May It Be. The album also introduces newest member Muirgen O’Mahony, and includes a performance by British folk group The Longest John’s who join Celtic Woman on a version of Richard Thompson’s Beeswing.
Following the album release, PBS will air the accompanying TV Special in North America across 60+ PBS local stations. Filmed on location in 14 beautiful and iconic locations around the island of Ireland, this 80minute TV special showcases the beautiful landscapes of Ireland as Celtic Woman perform their brand-new compositions and arrangements, plus some fan favourites.
Breaking from the usual format of their former TV specials they bring an innovative, fresh and vibrant approach as they take fans on this magical journey through Ireland, stopping off to perform their music in some of the most stunning land and seascapes across the country.
International music sensation Celtic Woman is honoured to be recognised as the most successful all-female group in Irish history, with a legacy of 12 consecutive Billboard number ones, 10 million album sales, a coveted Grammy nomination and an incredible 1.8 billion online streams to date.
Since 2005 Celtic Woman have produced 10 TV specials for PBS Television in North America. The show is one of the most successful PBS specials aired to date.
There will also be a DVD release in 2022, and a North American Postcards From Ireland Tour is scheduled to begin in Feb 2022.
