Hibernia album in the charts

The Hibernia album had a huge debut!

#4 on the Billboard World Albums chart (1 spot ahead of Destiny and 2 spots behind Voices of Angels)

#9 on the Classical Crossover Album chart

#11 “hot shot debut” on the Classical Albums chart

Congrats to Mairead and thanks to all her supporters!

It didn't end up having quite the same staying power as Celtic Woman albums generally do, but very few albums are that successful. Celtic Woman has a powerful marketing machine and a well-established and loyal fan base. But that fan base doesn't always extend beyond group albums into the solo works of the leading performers. Part of the fan base still thinks Chloë and Lisa are part of the group, so that goes to show that there are different types of fans and different levels of attention to what the performers have been up to recently.

Here's how Hibernia did in the charts.
