Cara Dillon
I have been a massive fan of this singer for a few years now. She has a fantastic voice, tinged with a slight Irish lilt - her having grown up around Dungiven. Well, I finally had the opportunity to go and see her live on Friday night at the Millennium Forum in Derry.
Absolutley bloody fantastic! she is everything I had hoped and more! supported by a great band including her partner Sam Lakeman, who may or may not be the brother of the famous Seth Lakeman ( who plays on the new album too...)
After the show I got to say hello as she signed the copy of her new CD for me (Hill of Thieves - supposed to be released in January, but available at the concerts) and she is a lovely girl.
Another mention must go to the support act, Eilidh Patterson (she has a myspace page and a website) who has a really sweet yet powerful voice - fantastic.
If you like folky female vocal stuff you should check out Cara, she really is great.
They swim... the mark of Satan is upon them. They must hang.
