Eileen McGann
Eileen McGannKnown as “Canada’s folk music voice to the world,” Eileen McGann is a dynamic and engaging performer who presents her songs with humour, passion, and energy. She is one of North America’s finest contemporary songwriters, with a singing voice alternately described as “magnificent," “stunning," and “hauntingly beautiful." And as if that weren’t enough, she has been praised as “one of the best traditional singers this side of Kerry." Whether on a festival mainstage, in a soft-seat hall, or an intimate club setting, her spirited style inspires audiences everywhere.

She has been featured on national radio programs in Britain, Canada, and the U.S. Her most recent album “Journeys” has received praise across the U.S. and Canada. Her latest recording, Heritage is a wonderful collection of traditional songs. You'll be glad to know that many of them have choruses!.

Eileen McGann's clear voice, incisive songwriting, and fresh interpretation combine to create compelling recordings of original and traditional material.

"McGann continues the Canadian tradition of honest, subtle story-telling and musical observation that has earned the respect of folk musicians and fans world wide."
