Artist:Orla Fallon
Song:Isle of Innsfree
Album:My Land
Orla Fallon is a former member of Celtic Woman. She has recorded solo since leaving the group in 2009. Isle of Innisfree was Orla's signature song from Celtic Woman. She was born Aug. 24, 1971 in Knockananna, County Wicklow, Ireland. She sings and plays harp. She was a member of the choir Anuna. After she left that group, Orla released the 2000 album The Water Is Wide. When she heard about Celtic Woman, she sent a demo to David Downes. Though she only wanted to appear with them once, Downes convinced her to be a full time member of Celtic Woman. She left in 2009. It's not surprising. Orla always wanted to be a solo artist. She signed with Green Hill and Elevation. Elevation promoted her tour and PBS specials. Isle of Innisfree is from the 2011 album My Land. She doesn't stray from the Celtic Woman formula. So their fans should enjoy Orla's music. My Land is available as a digital download. Her latest album Lore was released in 2020. She is not touring due to COVID-19. Here's Orla Fallon performing Isle of Innisfree on a Celtic Woman PBS special.
