Magical Ring

Clannad

This record features ghostly vocal harmonies that achieved fame following a miniseries broadcast. It established a reputation for bringing a specific style of Irish folk to a broader public.

The 1983 sessions combined traditional Gaelic words with clean, synthesizer-heavy studio methods. These elements helped form the Celtic New Age movement. The arrangements achieve a quality that feels simultaneously historical and modern.
