Featuring lead singer Karan Casey and fiddler Winifred Horan, this fiery Irish-American 5-piece band has been electrifying audiences everywhere. This 1997 album, their second, presents a fine balance of beautiful, evocative vocals and high-octane instrumentals, with an definite underlying feminist sensibility. Karan's voice caresses songs in both Gaelic and English; most contain female characters, some as lovers (""While sad I kissed away her tears/ My fond arms around her flinging...''), some as great women in history, and others as clever and independent thieves! Recommended!"
