After the end of Clannad, Moya Brennan continues as a solo artist. Brennan has been synonymous with spiritual Celtic music for over a quarter of a century and her voice defined the unique character of Clannad. Just before Christmas, Moyan brings An Irish Christmas to Amare. The magic of Christmas, captured in traditional carols as only 'The First Lady of Celtic Music' can perform them.

Heartwarming songs and carols in the characteristic 'Clannad style', to which Moya Brennan owes her reputation as a world star for more than fifty years. Clannad's DNA is deeply intertwined with her life and musical career, and even as a solo artist she remained true to the special and mysterious style that makes the repertoire of the family band so deeply loved.

To this day, because Clannad has just finished a world tour, in which the band said an impressive goodbye to its fans after more than 50 years. In a series of ten massively attended farewell concerts, the Dutch public also had the privilege of seeing and hearing the Brennan family shine on stage with lead vocalist Moya. After this last joint adventure, the members each go their separate ways. So is Moya, who with her virtuoso accompanying band is ready to give her audience a warm heart in the cold December with An Irish Christmas. Christmas classics such as Carol of the bells, In the bleak midwinter, Noel and of course the enchanting old Irish Oíche Chiúin will undoubtedly delight fans. Merry Christmas!

Moya has collaborated with a host of fellow artists including Bono (U2) Robert Plant (Led Zeppelin), Hans Zimmer (The Lion King, Gladiator), Chicane, Alan Parsons, Michael McDonald (Doobie Brothers) Bruce Hornsby, The Chieftains, Paul Young , Paul Brady, Michael Crawford, Joe Jackson, Ronan Keating and Shane McGowan (The Pogues).

She has composed music for several movie and TV series soundtracks, including: Titanic, Riverdance, Harry's Game, Robin of Sherwood, King Arthur, Circle of Friends, and The Last of The Mohicans.
