Title: Let's speculate a little!
Post by: ShiningBright on August 25, 2013, 05:52AM
Now, we can speculate how it will be with Mairéad C!

What kind of solos will she have? I think more of the folky type. But not in a Méav or Órlagh way. In her own way, a little more earthbound maybe.
Will she play the arcordeon? I hope so! Having another vocalist-instrumentalist sice Órlagh has left would be sooo cool!
What kind of dresses will she wear? I so hope to see her in a cold, dark green! A simple cut, wavy skirt!

What do you think?

   Hmmm...I  think  since   she  sounds   a  lot  like  Alex  that  perhaps  she  will be  given  songs that suited  our  Sweet   beautiful Alex -  hopefully  getting  more  stage  time  than was  allotted to  Alex on  tour.  This is  probable  since it's  the  3 vocalist mode.   I see her  shifting  from  classical  to  folk .

Everyone sais, she sound like Alex. I've never heard that :/ Is there any song where it shows very much? I would like to hear it!

I think she'll do fresh, light and folky songs!

I think her voice reminds me a bit of Alex but in essence she reminds me of Lynn.

To me her voice reminds me of Alex but she looks like Hayley :)

I do hope Mairead gets some very Celtic solos. She can sing in a very delicate Lynn-like way so this could be a chance to have a Celtic "a cappella" piece (like Meav's Danny Boy or Lynn's My Lagan Love) back in the set-list. But then, Mairead seems to be able to sing with power too, so I think she could sing a very wide range of music as easily as Chloe did, even some classical or theatrical - I would love to hear her sing Anthem.

Off topic, but I love your banner. :)

So! Celtic Woman posted on Facebook that Mairead was meeting with Synan for her dress fitting. What do we think? Will she be outfitted in Chloe's 2013 tour dresses for the European tour?

When Lynn joined CW, I remember she wore the same white dress that Hayley used to wear on tour -not sure about the golden one though. Same thing for Alex who wore Lisa K's ANJ gowns and Lisa Lambe who wore Alex's and Lynn's dresses from SFTH, and Susan with Lisa K's Believe dresses. That was obvious, because all the girls had similar sizes.

Now, Mairead seems to be much more thinner than Chloe so it's hard to say if the actual dresses can be modified to fit her or if new dresses will be needed. Especially because we don't know if the other girls will get new gowns for the upcoming tours. Only time will tell.

She wore her golden dress. There are pictures and a video of her, where she tries it. They made it bigger for her though...

As for Mairéad, they might give her a smaller version of Chloe's dress for the first act, because all of them fit together. I hope she'll get her own one for the second act, though...
