What the Press are saying:
No. 1 Trad Album 2021 – Alex Monaghan (FolkWorld)
“This album is a pleasure from start to finish – great tunes and great playing; full of life, emotion and that extra little something that makes the music sparkle. “
The Living Tradition 03/2021
“Ní Charra is a superb, multi-dimensional musician, but she also has the sort of outstanding taste and reach that can really take a recording project and tie it together. The results here are a total knockout!”
Irish Echo 01/2021
“Ms Ní Charra has perfected the art of the medley, mixing and matching styles and rhythms in a single set, constantly adding little surprises… One of the best albums of 2021 so far!”
FolkWorld 03/21
“The core duo have a synergy rarely heard in traditional music…They will be a must-see duo once lockdown is lifted. Until then you can play this on repeat. I know I will”
Irish Music Magazine 01/2021
“Niamh Ní Charra’s beautifully rough-hewn collection celebrates Sliabh Luachra’s bounties with chutzpah…A fine and firey collection.”
Siobhán Long, The Irish Times (4 Stars) 03/2013
“This is the immediate front runner for Album of the Year.”
Chicago Irish American News 03/2013
“Cuz” and the recognition this brings to Mr. Teahan is long overdue. Thank goodness, the woman who pulled all this together is a stunningly gifted musician and archivist. This is one of the best. Ever. Good on Cuz, and good on Niamh!
American Public Radio
“A startlingy mature collection…that further sculpts her musical identity with both grace and danger… A wonderful, unforced further step into the limelight.”
Siobhán Long, The Irish Times (4 Stars)
“Master-class musicianship, a legend in the making.”
Folk Radio UK
“Eclectic trad and original tunes, played with exquisite virtuosity, heart and charm.”
BBC Radio 2
“Happy Out could well be one of the best albums of 2010, so don’t miss it.”
Irish Music Magazine, 10/2010
“Forget talk of tradition versus innovation: Ní Charra’s facility with everything from 19th-century Italian composer Giulio Regondi’s Allegretto No 4 to a glorious set of Sliabh Luachra slides reflect a musician at home with music of any hue. ”
Siobhán Long, Irish Times (4 stars)
