Our Take

Ah, Loreena McKennitt, the reigning queen of Celtic music. Her latest album, "The Road Back Home," is a delightful return to form for the legendary songstress. With her ethereal vocals and masterful harp playing, McKennitt weaves a tapestry of sound that is both haunting and beautiful.

From the haunting melodies of "The Mystic's Dream" to the toe-tapping rhythms of "The Mummers' Dance," McKennitt proves once again why she is one of the most beloved artists in the folk genre. Her lyrics are poetic and thought-provoking, touching on themes of love, loss, and the passage of time.

The production on this album is top-notch, with each instrument ringing clear and true. McKennitt's voice soars above it all, carrying the listener on a journey through ancient lands and forgotten tales. It's like being transported to a mystical realm where anything is possible.

Overall, "The Road Back Home" is a triumphant return for Loreena McKennitt. It's a testament to her talent and artistry, and further cements her status as a true musical icon. So grab a pint of mead, light a candle, and let Loreena McKennitt take you on a magical journey. You won't regret it.
