 | Altan "Thought by many to
be the finest traditional Irish combo working today, Altan seamlessly blend dazzling instrumental
prowess and the gorgeously
delicate vocals of Mairead Ni Mhaonaigh"
....Chicago Weekly
"The hottest group in
the Celtic realm these days"
....The Boston Globe
"The appeal of Altan centres on the
fact that they see no differences or divisions in music.
As such, they have managed to cross the all- important cultural
barriers between folk and world and rock music"
....The Sunday Tribune, Dublin
Altan's
international status and success found a very practical recognition when they were signed in 1996 to Virgin Records,
the
first Irish band of their kind to be signed by a major label. The band gained gold and platinum albums in Ireland and continues
to tour larger venues thoughout the world, with tours in Japan, Australia, New Zealand, Europe as well as regular successful U.S.
tours.
