One of the most popular and original proponents of Celtic New Age music, John Doan plays a unique instrument (a cross between a harp and a guitar) and combines elements of traditional Celtic, contemporary ambient, and soothing New Age in a compelling, hypnotic way. EIRE: ISLE OF THE SAINTS is among the artist's finest recordings.
In addition to Doan's modified harp, he adds bagpipes, wood flutes, and mandolins to create a haunting, beautiful sound that evokes the misty natural landscapes of Ireland, along with the myth and folklore associated with the region. Perfect for background music and for sustained, meditative listening, EIRE belongs in the collection of any Celtic and New Age music listener.
