Loreena McKennitt - The Journey Continues (2012) CD-Rip

Loreena McKennitt Singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Loreena McKennitt is one of Canada's most beloved national artists, a folk chanteuse, and a new age troubadour who made her breakthrough in the mid-'80s with her literate and oft-experimental focus on Celtic-tinged traditional and original material, coupled with her haunting harp playing. As her career progressed, McKennitt began incorporating Spanish, Galician, and Arabic themes into her repertoire, culminating in a trio of career-defining albums -- The Visit, The Mask and Mirror, and The Book of Secrets -- that made her an international star. McKennitt went on a long hiatus after the tragic death of her fiancé in 1998, but returned to the studio in 2006 with the acclaimed The Book of Secrets, followed by a string of EPs and concert and studio albums, with highlights arriving via 2010's trad-Celtic LP The Wind That Shakes the Barley, 2018's inward-looking Lost Souls, and 2023's vibrant The Road Back Home.
