Title: Hibernia Post by: ShiningBright on May 10, 2016, 12:50AM I have just checked facebook and seen that Mái N will release a new album called Hibernia next year! I am so excited :D

Yes, she did look exceptionally stunning! Title: Re: Hibernia Post by: CWazyTom on May 30, 2016, 04:34PM I figured I'd document some additional details about Hibernia here for reference purposes, since searching through Facebook for this information can be a bit cumbersome, particularly on a mobile device.
Hibernia is an old name for Ireland. Some other people involved:
Release date: When is recording expected to start? August 2016 Sources (in case I typo'd anything): https://www.facebook.com/permalink.php?story_fbid=1714376338841641&id=1443453375933940 https://www.facebook.com/M%C3%A1ir%C3%A9ad-Nesbitt-Celtic-Violinist-1443453375933940/?fref=ts https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hibernia Title: Re: Hibernia Post by: CWazyTom on July 11, 2016, 12:29PM How exciting!

Note: Some might know the song as "There Is No Light" depending on which version of Raining Up you have.

I think there's a wee technical issue with the link at the moment (it's still pointing to just the single Becoming). There's a flood of comments about the link and download availability at the moment and I'm sure they're aware and working on it at this point. I'm sure it will be well worth waiting a few hours longer. :D Title: Re: Hibernia Post by: White Rose on December 08, 2016, 04:47PM Argh! I'm so impatient. I'm frustrated by the one person who keeps giving wrong information in response to people mentioning the tech issues. That's bugging me more than having to wait honestly.
Title: Re: Hibernia Post by: White Rose on December 08, 2016, 05:51PM Currently downloading a zip file. Fingers crossed folks.
And it would totally help if I had a file extractor on my computer. Oops! Title: Re: Hibernia Post by: CWazyTom on December 08, 2016, 05:59PM They got the Hibernia album download to be visible at last (not just the single)!
Here we go boys and girls!!!! Title: Re: Hibernia Post by: CWazyTom on December 08, 2016, 07:06PM OMG Mairead!
Hibernia is so good! I'm literally overwhealmed. There's such incredible variety. There's something for everyone and lots for everyone to enjoy! With so much variety, there's always the possibility you won't like absolutely everything about every track. It was like that for me with Deirdre Shannon's self-titled album, there was just so much variety that unless you like almost every type of music imaginable, there's bound to be tiny parts that you may not appreciate as much as others. Or you may just love it all. :D Lots of tracks had me jumping up and down and clapping along. Several tracks reduced me to tears they were so deeply moving. I believe this album is available to the general public tomorrow. If you haven't heard it yet, you have to hear it! Title: Re: Hibernia Post by: White Rose on December 08, 2016, 07:14PM It has a wide variety on it. There are four different arrangements of tracks that are on Raining Up, so if you start listening and think it sounds really familiar, that would be why.
Title: Re: Hibernia Post by: isle of hope on December 09, 2016, 11:20PM I took the download, but haven't listened yet.

It's even more beautiful than it was on Raining Up. Legitimate contender for my all-time favourite instrumental track! Title: Re: Hibernia Post by: CWazyTom on December 19, 2016, 11:45PM I figured we should keep album info separate from album reviews. If we get a few reviews going, it may start to get cluttered like the Voices of Angels thread.
