Loreena McKennitt Plays Live on Echoes
Internationally acclaimed artist Loreena McKennitt came to Echoes with her trio to perform live.
Loreena McKennitt first gained recognition for playing and singing Celtic music with her harp and pure soprano voice on albums like Parallel Dreams. With The Visit, she expanded her sound to embrace eastern elements and, with a trilogy of brilliant albums, The Mask & The Mirror, The Book of Secrets and An Ancient Muse, she created a crossroads of Middle Eastern and Celtic music.
Over the last few years, McKennitt has returned to her Celtic roots with albums like The Wind That Shakes the Barley. With a more intimate performance ensemble featuring longtime guitarist Brian Hughes and cellist Caroline Lavelle, Loreena McKennitt played live on Echoes. Hear it in this exclusive Echoes Stream.

Just rediscovering this since the broadcast I heard many years ago. A JOY.
When I heard it then, I couldn’t believe the clarity over the headphones – I MUST be being tricked. Thanks to the musicians and the technical staff for the surprising accuracy!
local radio is WYPR
Thank you so very much for having Miss Loreena McKennitt on your show. She is truly a gift from God. You can never hear to much of her. Also thank you for Caroline Lavelle and Brian Hughes.
I first saw Miss Loreena McKennitt live at the Universal Amphitheater in Hollywood California and I have been hooked ever since. Oh, Do you remember a man yelling out “Marry me”! that was so awesome. You said “I don’t think you would like that.”.
