Celtic Woman
The international Irish music phenomenon, CELTIC WOMAN, will play at the Pensacola Civic Center on April 3, 2009. Last year’s hit show earned the ladies hundreds of new local fans and this concert promises to be even better! Four years ago Celtic Woman traveled from Ireland to America and captivated millions with their inspiring songs of hope and love. Their incredible journey to stardom has been like a dream come true for vocalists Chloe, Lisa, Orla, Lynne, Alex and Celtic violinist Mairead. The 2009 “Isle of Hope” tour will dazzle the eye, enchant the ear and stimulate both the mind and the heart. Fans have the opportunity to experience Celtic Woman’s most magical production yet, featuring brand-new renditions of “Fields of Gold” and “Have I Told You Lately That I Love You,” as well as an original anthem by Brendan Graham, writer of “You Raise Me Up.”
Celtic Woman has been winning over audiences worldwide with their heavenly renditions of Irish standards, classical favorites and contemporary hits. In just four short years, the group has sold more than 4 million CDs and DVDs, played seven US tours, and performed for more than 800,000 people. Meanwhile, the three Celtic Woman PBS Specials have aired more than 13,658 times on 342 PBS stations across the country, covering 97% of US television households.
