Name That Celtic Woman

Found this on the old forum and thought it would be fun here!

I'll start. This member can play the violin but doesn't professionally.

Thanks for trying something new (on here).

I'll take a wild guess. I'm not sure if I heard this in an interview or I'm totally making it up.

Orla ?

No, but an interesting guess! Thanks for answering : ). I’ll give you a hint. This member was not one of the original five.

My guess is Muirgen

As far as I know, no, although Muirgen does play the piano and flute.

Here’s another hint: this member is a natural brunette, although I think she briefly had blonde hair once when she was with CW.

Yes Muirgen does/did play she started playing at 5 years old Here is a AI serch on the topic

She started violin lessons around age 5 but has said she was "terrible at it" and soon gave it up (along with classical flute, drums, and piano) to focus on singing.

Also Hayley plays the violin

as a hobby. Hayley Westenra also learned violin (plus piano, guitar, and recorder) as a child

This is a hard topic has the girls have many hidden talents

I didn’t know that! You got me there!

Hayley was the member I was thinking of, as it mentions she learned violin on Wikipedia.

Do you want to go next? Sorry about my blunder 😅

No have at it

No have at it

Thank you! Let’s hope I can redeem myself…

This member is so far the only CW member from this province in Ireland…

Attached for reference is a map detailing the provinces of Ireland. Note that provinces are different from counties, the counties are within provinces.

Interesting as somewhat only Hayley came to mind.

Okay, no one has replied to this in over a week, so I’ll just give the answer. It’s Kate. She’s from Mayo (in Connacht province).

Here’s one that should hopefully be easier: which members have sang and played an instrument simultaneously while performing with CW?

Oh you learn something new every day.

I did not know Ireland had provinces. I know a lot of the Counties. And it took me a while to know the difference between Great Britain & the UK, and the countries they contain. But I didn't know Ireland had provinces. Thanks!

One of my favorite songs is Ireland's Call, when done by Celtic Thunder.  Great closing song.  Anyway, one line is "from the 4 proud provinces of Ireland:.

I'll give this a different perspective, as it can be read differently.

We have Lisa Lambe performing spoons while singing TAR on Believe. And we also have Orla playing the Harp while playing Isle of Innisfree on The Original Show.

Yes, Lisa Lambe and Órla are two of the members I’m thinking of. However, there’s more. I’ll give you a hint—there are two other members who also have played spoons on Téir Abhaile Riú.
