The Barra MacNeils September 12, 2008

The Barra MacNeils is widely regarded as one of the Celtic world's greatest live acts. Hailing from Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, the six MacNeil siblings are deeply rooted in Celtic music, culture, and history. Their critically acclaimed recordings include original songs as well as tradition-rich standards, both instrumental and vocal. The Barra MacNeils' live concert experience brings so much more to the stage than most live acts, featuring multiple lead vocalists, beautiful sibling harmonies, top drawer instrumental prowess on a wide variety of acoustic, stringed, percussion and wind instruments, dancing, storytelling, Gaelic songs and a journey through an ancient culture.
