Celtic Woman Review and DVD Giveaway

February 24, 2010 in giveaway,review,Uncategorized

image Celtic Woman is recently on tour with their newest project “Songs from the Heart.”  They are a five-member Irish female ensemble that puts a modern twist on the Celtic Sound.

I had never heard of Celtic Woman before, but when Mr. Serious saw the CD, he mentioned that they are frequently on PBS.  So, needless to say, I didn’t really know what to expect when I popped the CD into our van’s CD player.

I was very pleasantly surprised.  The music is fun and light-hearted and yet sounds very modern.  The very first song is actually Sting’s “Field of Dreams.”  It also features a fun song from Lion King (one of the first Disney soundtracks I memorized).  Their music can definitely reach many audiences as they switch from Irish classics, to cover songs to their own original compositions.  It was definitely a fun mix of songs.

They are on tour right now.  I’ve read some rave reviews of their concerts and I was bummed that I wasn’t able to attend.  You can check their tour dates to see if they are performing near you.  Look at their crazy and modern set.  It sure looks fun to me!

Win It: Celtic Woman has donated one (1) Celtic Woman Songs from the Heart LIVE CONCERT DVD to a lucky Really, Are You Serious? reader.
