Editor's note

Celtic Thunder's rotating lineup of Irish voices

A vocal group blending traditional Irish songs with contemporary covers since 2007.

For a good sense of their range, listen to 'A Place In The Choir' and 'Christmas 1915.' They show how the group moves between folk tradition and seasonal pieces.

They've carved out a space where Irish tradition meets modern pop, which you can hear in their version of U2's 'I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For' alongside tracks like 'My Land.' Their rotating cast of singers like Damian McGinty and Ryan Kelly gives the project a fluid, ensemble feel rather than a fixed band identity. That approach has kept them going through various lineups and recordings for over fifteen years.

Sharon Browne put the group together in 2007 to handle traditional material with a contemporary feel. They've worked with a rotating lineup over time, with performers like Neil Byrne and Michael O'Dwyer appearing in different configurations. After some criticism about a 2012 performance on 'Dancing with the Stars,' they kept going and maintained a presence through various recordings.

Archive material and source history

Celtic Thunder formed in 2007, put together by Irish producer Sharon Browne. The idea was to gather Irish singers and musicians who could handle traditional material with a contemporary feel. They've worked with a rotating lineup over time, with performers like Damian McGinty, Ryan Kelly, Neil Byrne, Michael O'Dwyer, and Emmett O'Hanlon appearing in different configurations.

Their repertoire includes both traditional Irish songs and covers of modern material. You can hear this range in tracks like 'A Place In The Choir' and their version of U2's 'I Still Haven't Found What I'm Looking For.' They've also recorded seasonal pieces such as 'Christmas 1915.'

In 2012, there was some criticism about a performance on 'Dancing with the Stars' that some felt leaned too commercial. The group kept going after that. They've maintained a presence through various lineups and recordings since their start.
