SARAH MCQUAID: When Two Lovers Meet
Sparkling guitar instrumentals and velvet-tinged vocals, described by The Rough Guide To Irish Music as "warm as a turf fire and as rich as matured cognac ... an astonishing debut by a unique talent."
Sarah McQuaid is a singer, guitarist and writer. She is the author of The Irish DADGAD Guitar Book and has released one album, When Two Lovers Meet. For a full bio, go to the BIO page on www.sarahmcquaid.com. You can purchase the book from MusicRoom and the CD from CD Baby. Alternatively, if you don't mind NOT having a proper CD with its beautiful 8-page booklet and original cover artwork by Mary Guinan, you can download the whole CD (or individual tracks) from Apple iTunes. If you'd like to hear more excerpts from the album, click on MUSIC. You can listen to radio interviews (including live in-studio performances), read reviews and download high-res images from the PRESS page of the website – and don't forget to keep an eye on the NEWS and CALENDAR pages for all the latest info!
