Cara Dillon - She Moved Through the Fair

Irish songbird Cara Dillon finds a way to breathe new life into the traditional Celtic folk chestnut "She Moved Through the Fair". As we gushed earlier: "With crystalline clarity, a mix of both fragility and quiet resilience, Dillon's singing has an intimacy, honesty and indescribable appeal that goes beyond the immense technical skill she brings to the recordings. Listening to the classic "She Moves Through the Fair", with just a piano backing, is to hear it as if for the first time, the familiar melody, stripped to it's core, revealing a shimmering, soft-spoken opulence." From her new album Hill of Thieves arriving September 15. More DC on Cara here.
