Every once in awhile a song brings tears to my eyes. Every great once in a while a quality of voice makes the hair stand up on my arms, and few and far between are lyrics that strike my heart dead center. Sullivan's long awaited new release does all those things and this ain't no bull--several of the cuts managed all three at once. This is not traditional Celtic by the stretch of anyone's imagination. It has the grit of a hard-core Nashville production, the yearning honesty of Tracy Chapman, and the real-woman feminine appeal of Emmy Lou. Yet, Irish-born Sullivan is not straying far from her Bardic roots with these intensely poetic compositions deeply informed by Gaelic musical influences; and her sweet quavering voice is genuinely Irish in inflection. What separates her from the other Celtic divas is that you sense there is real blood pumping in her veins; that she has walked down the rocky road of life and still has the rousing passion of the Irish to celebrate it. Cheers, Mairéid, you knocked me down and tied me up.
Listen for their keening call In your heart you will hear their song Hear your own voice, see your own dream Come to me they sing in melodious strain Live forever deep in Danu s dream. What separates her from the other Celtic divas is that you sense there is real blood pumping in her veins; that she has walked down the rocky road of life and still has the rousing passion of the Irish to celebrate it.

The magical caress song
For Love's Caress
a Celtic Journey, 1998

". a bold, daring and courageous album full of unexpected twists and delightful turns. a sweet oasis of transcendental delight.
Ray Dorsey, Chaos Realm, 1998, Baltimore, MD
". Although very little can hold a candle to Maireid's first solo effort, the magical "Dancer", this one is brilliance on an even grander scale! From the opening loveliness of "For Love's Caress" to the bizarrely original rhythmic closer, "Anam Chara", Ms. Sullivan not only stretches the boundaries of traditional Celtic folk, but explodes beyond them with a confidence and air of creativity that is staggering.
Listen to the mesmerizing melodies of "Soaring" (one of my favourite songs in ANY kind of music in the last umpteen years), the other-worldly callings of "Danu's Land" or the ancient beauty of "Eileen Aroon." Through all of this, the common denominator is Maireid's stunning voice, the likes of which is a once-in-a-lifetime gift to the listener.
The world needs to hear this woman sing! Moreover, the band of musicians she has assembled here merge with her in the true power of diversity. From song to song, they all make "For Love's Caress. " quite easily my album of the year . "

- For Loves Caress: A Celtic Journey
- Dancer
Mairéid Sullivan
Lyrebird Music
Two staggering, ethereal masterpieces from Mairéid Sullivan! Staggering because Sullivan’s unbelievably magical voice and the albums’ strong instrumentation push the Celtic music envelope to its limits, and then “magically,” a bit more! Ethereal, because these albums are a product of Sullivan’s daily unfolding personal journey. Sullivan does not merely perform Celtic music, she lives by those spiritual values in which Celtic music is acutely and profoundly rooted. Please don’t misunderstand. Neither of these albums are religious, but every cut is deeply spiritual, whether they be dance tunes or romantic longings.
For Love’s Caress is quite different from the earlier Dancer. Both show the remarkable range of Sullivan’s talents. Dancer is so stunning that you will think that Sullivan can do nothing to top it. Then along comes For Love’s Caress! I love both of these CD’s, but I have to admit that I can’t seem to get enough of For Loves Caress, if for no other reason than the mystically powerful “Anam Cara.” The anam cara is the Celtic “soul friend,” the one who becomes closer than close. The anam cara is the one with whom our soul blends. St. Comgall upon the death of his anam cara claimed that it was like losing one’s own head. Sullivan’s interpretation of the soul friend is one of the most moving that I’ve ever come across.
When I awake my dreaming starts
I dream about heaven and luminous beings.
I dream I am in it with my eyes open
I dream I am in it with my eyes closed
And when I walk along I dream I take them into the world with me
To show them the clay that I shaping.
And they think its so exciting
They love this adventure that we’re having
Digging in the earth of pain and shaping love
Fragile, delicate, beautiful love
enduring love, eternal love, perfect love
passionate love, devoted love, yearning love
true love, young love, enchanting love, precious love
sweet love, endearing love, compassionate love
unconditional love, beloved love, my beloved love.
Sullivan states that she has found in her own personal journey a “philosophical treasure” that promotes the concept of “Personal Sovereignty,” something I believe we’ve lost in this age of “entitlement." Sullivan goes on to say that her music is about connecting with people of like mind, each relationship having its own unique story to sing. From each, we learn something about ourselves, and this is exactly what anam cara is all about.
There is another reason that I like Mairéid Sullivan, not only here music, but Mairéid Sullivan as a person: Quite often in these pages we’ve written about the Oran Mór, that primordial creative melody that eternally and creatively sings, a melody that is about the giving and receiving of blessing. Mairéid Sullivan has discovered that song! It is this, more than anything else that makes her music personal both to her and to us. The mesmerizing melodies of "Soaring" say it all.

All the elements of great Celtic music come together in this brilliant recording. Listening enraptured, lovingly caressed by Maireid Sullivan's magic, one feels as though they are Anam Chara, 'soul friend' to this noble artist.

You express the intent of the songs . with depth and great feeling. I really like the way you have melded the traditional 'old songs' and the new visions of your own. A true Celtic process which has allowed them as a people to survive until now - they are a very adaptive culture and keep one foot in the future and one in the past while visiting the otherworld on occasion. The music of both old and new is well blended to create a whole that is a continuum as well as 'soul-scape'. . the overall effect is calming, giving a warm peaceful, gentle, and refreshing feel. It would be hard to pick one 'most favorite' song, but if I had to choose, I think it would be "Recurring Dream". I have similar dreams about my childhood, but also about places I've never been yet know I have lived in lifetimes ago. "I don't want to hide" is another that I can personally relate to. And I love the way you've done "The Great Silkie of Sule Skerry" and "Annie Laurie". It is hard to separate the whole, and I hate doing that, as cubbyholes with separated, estranged wholeness are a great part of the problem with our world and our souls today.
Plus, we all need the refuge of peace and plenty for our heart's rest in "Danu's Land" where: '. Sweet as the voice of angels. Listen for their keening call/ In your heart you will hear their song/ Hear your own voice, see your own dream/ 'Come to me' they sing in melodious strain/ Live forever deep in Danu's dream. ' -- a conscientious perspective of how Celtic music, thus culture, is alive today yet retains very strong flavors and convictions from the past. The underlying effects of the music provides a calming, warm feel. Pob fendithion Brigid i chi cariad. (All blessings of Brigid be yours love.)

Move over Enya, Maireid is here. Offering traditional Celtic tunes, plus more brilliant original compositions, "For Love's Caress" reflects Maireid Sullivan's versatility as a musical artist, and shows this is one powerful songstress that just keeps getting hotter and hotter! Her intelligence and musical genius shines through in her melodies and thoughtful lyrics. Her songs have an almost mystical intelligence to them, mature beyond her years. Spirit truly unites with flesh on "For Love's Caress," creating a sensuous and magical album that you can listen to over and over again . The instrumentation and musicianship is superb, with guitar, cello, keyboards, and harp, as well as Uilleann Pipes, tin whistle, violin, and bullroarer. Maireid gathers together a remarkable blend of musicians such as Robert McEntee, Gerri Sutyak, Shannon Michael Terry, Martin Hayes, Eric Rigler, Ben Kettlewell, and Jim McGrath, giving this album a rich acoustic fullness and added depth.
She is even joined by her mother, Mary Sullivan, and her sister, Genevieve, on the song "Anam Chara," a song about the rare friendships that you find along life's journey. The title cut, "For Love's Caress" is a beautiful love song that makes your soul tremble. "Recurring Dream" is pure milk and honey, and my favorite cut on this finely-crafted album. The song's melody, like many of Maireid's tunes, haunts you for days afterward, and you find yourself humming this tune. "I Don't Want to Hide" shows Maireid's versatility, and has a real pop sensibility to it. Possessing one of the most extraordinary singing voices of our day, Maireid still delivers favorite traditional Celtic songs such as "The Leaving of Liverpool," and "The Great Silkie of Sule Skerry." Continuing as one of the most creative and dynamic contemporary Celtic artists, Maireid Sullivan is singing her way to the top! "For Love's Caress" has my highest recommendation and top rating. This album makes the perfect gift!

Hot on the heels of her recent collaboration, "A Celtic Evening", with The Chieftain's harper, Derek Bell, this is the latest offering from this world renowned artist. "For Love's Caress" is without a doubt, a delicate and provocative masterpiece of contemporary Celtic music. Many diverse elements are at work, and the chemistry is there.
Mairéid has been featured on five Celtic recordings, and as in her earlier releases, she not only reinterprets traditional pieces in an extraordinary manner, but forges ahead with original material that defines the future of the genre. Unlike many other Celtic artists, Mairéid and her band create music which is totally void of well worn clichés, and instead presents an invigorating and inspiring musical environment.
The album contains five traditional pieces and nine originals. Running at almost 70 minutes it is indeed a metaphorical Celtic journey. Mairéid has assembled a top notch international group of artists (and her mother) to back her evocative, mesmerizing voice. Some of the pieces feature the entire ensemble, where others use minimal orchestration to convey the simplicity and beauty of the songs. Joining Mairéid is world renowned Irish fiddler, Martin Hayes (with thanks to Green Linnet), Eric Rigler (Braveheart, Titantic) on Uilleann Pipes, Tin Whistle and Low Whistle, Donelle Page on Classical Harp, Gerri Sutyak on Cello, Ben Kettlewell on Electric, Acoustic & Slide Guitars, and Keyboards, Robert "Cass" McEntee on 12 string Rhythm Guitar and Bass, Jim Mc Grath on Percussion, Shannon Michael Terry on Vocal Drones, Mbira, Shruti Box, & Bullroarer, Andrzej Wolczynski on Accordion, Genevieve Sullivan on vocal harmony, and a special guest appearance by Mairéid's mother, Mary Sullivan. The music evokes a sense of immediacy for the listener. It creates a magical experience in a compelling atmosphere. On this new album, Mairéid's soaring voice interprets each song with a gentle spirit and delicate touch that reveals her visionary realm of mystery and enchanting beauty. This is particularly evident on songs like Danu's Land, and Anam Cara. As a personal soundtrack to a spiritual pilgrimage, Mairéid sets her poetry to music in a stunning creative musical statement. "For Love's Caress" will stir your soul and let your spirit take flight with it's exquisite vocals, lyrics and alluring musicianship.
