The storm has hit -- the eagerly awaited second album from
Deanta, featuring the lead vocals of Mary Dillon, is here and is more impressive than ever. Mary lends her crystalline voice to standout renditions of "The Lake of Pontchartrain," "Culloden's Harvest," and the title track, "Ready for the Storm," written by Scots singer-songwriter
Dougie MacLean. Inventively arranged instrumentals, performed on harp, fiddle, flute, guitar, keyboards and more, are also a hallmark
Deanta.
Ready for the Storm is an absolutely stellar achievement, capturing one of Ireland's youngest and highly talented traditional bands in peak performance. ~ MusD
