Post Description

Méav gives much of the credit for her love of classical and traditional music to the early influences of her very musical family. In addition, she attended an Irish language school in Dublin where she was exposed regularly to traditional Irish music in Gaelic.
Although Méav received a law degree from the world-renowned Trinity College in Dublin, it did not take long for her to realize her destiny was in music, not law. "Music is part of what I am," Méav says. She did her post-grad work in arts administration, working for an organization called Music Network, which was responsible for arranging tours of classical, jazz and traditional music throughout Ireland. At the same time, she realized that her singing was taking over as her number one interest. "Gradually it came to me that this is what I should be doing all the time," she said.
By 1998, her astonishing vocal clarity and breathtaking range had already caught the attention of producer/composer David Downes, earning his respect and admiration. Little did either one of them know that their lives would change forever with their collaboration on a special project in 2004 called "Celtic Woman."
Méav's fanbase exploded with the airing of "Celtic Woman" on PBS in the United States, and she has been especially appreciative of the loyalty and support of all her fans, both old and new.
After two years of touring with the group, Méav left to resume her solo career. With the success of her first US solo shows last December in NY and NH, Méav promises to come back again to the US to grace her fans with her enchanting performances.
In 2009, Méav was invited to perform the song "Where the Sunbeams Play" for Disney's "Tinkerbell and the Lost Treasure." March of 2010 marked Méav's Carnegie Hall debut with the NY Pops Orchestra conducted by Steven Reineke. Méav with the world renowned Les Rhapsodes Choir also headlined the Quebec Celtic Festival in September.
In spite of all the well-deserved success and acclaim, by far Méav's greatest achievement to date came when she and her husband Tom celebrated the birth of their children Anna in 2005, and Catherine in the summer of 2009.
2013 proved to be Méav's year with the release of her new PBS show DIVINAS, Live at Chambord Castle in March. Méav also joined the panel of judges on the TG4 TV series Scóre Encore traditional Irish music and dance competition. Méav also is trilled to release her new Cd "The Calling," which was a collabotion with the Grammy Award winning producer and director, Craig Leon.
