Karen Matheson
has captivated audiences around the world and sold over a
million records as the lead singer of the best-selling,
internationally-renowned Celtic supergroup Capercaillie,
recognized by Billboard magazine as “the most exciting and
vibrant band in the field of Celtic music today.”
Downriver, her
third solo album, is a powerful collection of traditional
and contemporary songs in English and Gaelic, delivered in a
striking, paired-down acoustic setting. The album features
special guests Donal Lunny, James MacIntosh (Shooglenifty),
and Michael McGoldrick and is produced by Donald Shaw
(Capercaillie, Karan Casey).
“Matheson's
ravishing voice coupled with Shaw's arrangements create a
serene sonic environment that lets the inner beauty of her
music glow brightly.”
