Album Description |
|
FROM THE CREATORS AND PRODUCERS OF THE IRISH PHENOMENON CELTIC WOMAN COMES THE NEXT GENERATION IN IRISH BALLAD MUSIC, THE HIGH KINGS. Finbarr Clancy, Martin Furey, Brian Dunphy and Darren Holden - renowned vocalists and musicians - have come together to form the hottest Irish folk and ballad group to emerge since The Clancy Brothers and Tommy Makem electrified the worldwide folk revival of the 1960s. The musical producer is the highly acclaimed David Downes, who is the musical genius behind Celtic Woman and formerly the musical director of Riverdance. He brings intricate harmonies and driving rhythms to The High Kings songbook, giving them a freshness and sparkle that is infectious. A rousing TV special was filmed in Dublin and is available on DVD (The High Kings: Live in Dublin). |

absolutely wonderful |
|
The High Kings opened for Celtic Woman where we saw them in Michigan. they were utterly amazing with beautiful voices, delightful harmonies, engaging presentation and a diverse set of songs. I loved their performance. As a tenor myself, I'd have to say these guys are the best. |

If you are old enough to remember The Kingston Trio the Kings are an Irish version with all the great harmony and humor. If you like this kind of music, the Kings are a must. Dvd-books was great with their instant delivery. |

A new favorite |
|
This album has quickly become my favorite celtic selection. I love the harmonies and rhythms. Every song is filled with power and emotion, and I often find myself dancing and singing along--to the best of my meager abilities. |
