this is the way CW posted it and makes it sound just for the christmas tour

Caitríona Sherlock and fiddle player Ciara Ní Mhurcú are joining the Celtic Woman line-up for our upcoming Symphony tour.

As Tara just had her baby 2 1/2 weeks ago and with baby only little over 3 months old at the start of the christmas tour kind of hard to leave baby with new dad even more so if Tara is feeding the baby and as for Emma it's unknown

Given that Emma is missing again it seems doubtful that she may be there "too much longer". One would hope she'll do another tour but it seems like if she does another one she may leave after it.  Either way Mairead & Muirgen are still there though.

When CWFella2011 posted about a FB announcement yesterday, my first guess was adding Mairead N to the Christmas tour. And my second guess was adding one more sub, and hoping it was Chloe or Susan. That was all wishful thinking...

I'm a big fan of Caitriona Sherlock. My family had mentioned before, 'Why don't they add her as a CW?' Here's a recent vid posted by Eabha from CWF.

I'm travelling at the moment, but I'll spin up a few topics for the new girls and will fill them in more later.

They deleted the pics of Tara & Emma at the bottom of the CW website (Tours & Tickets, Store, etc).  :(

There are four pics of the "CW model" right now.

It will be interesting to see what Tara does.  I highly doubt she would be on some kind of a Spring tour.  I think it would be too tough.  I know Lisa K toured with her kids, but they were a little older.

The fact Caitríona & Ciara are announced as “new members”makes it sound like Emma & Tara are gone and not returning. Emma hasn’t been on stage since the 20 tour ended so a warning sign there
