Album Description
For Celtic Thunder, Sharon Browne has teamed up with Grammy-nominated Irish songwriting and composing veteran Phil Coulter to produce a show that includes an eclectic mix of songs ranging from the traditional "Mountains of Mourne" and "Come By the Hills" to international hits such as "Brothers in Arms" and "Desperado," as well as original compositions by Coulter, who has written hits for Elvis Presley ("My Boy") and the Bay City Rollers, and performed with Van Morrison, Tom Jones, and the Rolling Stones. The ensemble numbers in Celtic Thunder reflect the power of the vocalists, who range in age from 14 to 40, and feature songs that celebrate a common Celtic heritage.

Customer Reviews

Great Music, Silly Reviews
I can't believe that people are giving this low stars just because it does not have all of the songs from the concert DVD (which is a separate product altogether). You really should rate the CD on what it IS and what it is not.

Besides, executive producer Sharon Browne posted on their official web site that there will be a 2nd CD containing the "missing" songs that will be coming out in September, and featuring a bonus track of "Danny Boy."

So my review of the CD, as it IS....

Wonderful! If you are looking for traditional Irish music, this probably isn't the album for you, but if you are looking for five talented vocal performers coming together to produce a terrific contemporary album, then hold on to your seats! Each song is beautifully arranged and executed to perfection, producing a coherent album that embraces each of the strengths of the individual soloists.

Definitely recommended!

A Stellar Performance
These 5 lads may just be the next musical Phenomenon. Amazing voices, beautiful Orchestration, excellent song content. I can't stop listening to it. It is extremely rare that one finds enjoyment in an entire cd. This is that rare occasion.

Excellent Music - A Breath of Fresh Air
This is a fantastic new group of individual solo artists who collectively have a wonderful harmony. There is literally something for every one here. Stand Outs are Keith Harkin who wrote 1 of the songs he sings (Lauren and I) and looks like the surfer lad he is. We will absolutely hear more from him beyond Celtic Thunder. Ryan, Paul, Damian and George all have their own great vocal qualities and personalities. Ryan will do equally well as a singer and actor if he chooses to act (He's even a certified Accountant), George is well known throughout Scotland and the UK as a deep-voiced folk singer, Paul is a professional operatic singer since the age of 14 and Damian is an up-and-comer at the age of 15. A couple of the songs will melt your heart, and still a few more will cause your heart to swell with pride for Ireland regardless of what country you hail from. One song, "The Island" gave me a new perspective on the wars of Lebanon, Ireland and even our own US conflict in Iraq. Buy this DVD and CD - you won't regret it! This is one of the few groups I would really like to meet in person. I'll definitely be at their concert in Sacramento CA in Dec 2008!
