    ye, I've never heard something like this before. pureness of voice, instuments, words I'll never understand. I'm wondering cause in my mind Irish =/= tenderness. but the musical creations of Iarla are tender and original, which leads to unpopularity.

    Such an amazing artist. Just found out about his upcoming album "Foxlight" recently, and also the new song "The Goat Song" on YouTube. Couldn't be more anxious to listen to the whole record.

    A hauntingly pure voice - the male counterpart of Julie Fowlis - in terms of singing magical Gaelic songs.

    What can I say? Iarla is awesomely Celtic and surprisingly innovative. I've been looking for something similar... without luck.
