That would be Karan Casey, you can read about here here.

Cheers,

Robin thanks, I originally checked all that. Karan went solo a few years ago. The woman on the new album cover looks and sounds different to me but age and time....

Found it - Mairead Phelan.

The one SOLAS in my collection is on Shanachie from 1997 and Kate Maurer is the lead. Good recording, too. Man, they sure looked different then! KM is a tiny little thing. Speaking of Shanachie, yesterday I ordered an album with Henry Kaiser and David Lindley in Norway.

Kim Wilson, my man. Not only does he play mean harp, he sings the blues a black man could envy.

Cowboy Junkies - Pale Sun Crescent Moon

From Amazon.com:

The Cowboy Junkies' Michael Timmins is a most literary songwriter. On the Toronto quartet's Pale Sun Crescent Moon, Timmins imbeds lines from William Faulkner's Absalom, Absalom into the song "First Recollection" and a line from Gabriel Garcia Marquez's "The General in His Labyrinth" in the song "Seven Years" without it seeming the least bit awkward. He has found the perfect literary voice for his writing in his sister Margo Timmins, whose alto is all smoke and suggestion. Songs are not poems, however, and never was that distinction more obvious than it is here. The album's so-called songs float in atmospheric harmonies, unshaped by melody or meter. This droning music may seem haunting on first encounter, but by the third song the melodic monotony encourages dozing. --Geoffrey Himes
