  • Description

    Ireland has a long established international reputation for producing a wealth of uniquely talented female musicians and singers. Very few can compare with Galway's own Dolores Keane, who's rare, powerful, and melodic vocal style has received major acclaim at home and abroad.

    This vinyl collection features a specially curated selection of recordings from Dolores' extensive repertoire and highlights her musical journey from traditional to a more contemporary style.

    To celebrate her 70th birthday Dolores has released a new song of resilience, redemption, and hope. My Refuge, written by Galway singer, songwriter, and poet Johnny Broderick, is very much her own life story in song. Her recent success in the charts emphasises yet again her popularity, her longevity, and the great affection the public have for her.

    "I know the people love me and that has kept me strong.
    But it's not about me anyway, for the hope is in the song."

    Dolphin Records are privileged and proud to release this vinyl to coincide with the celebration of Dolores Keane's 70th birthday.
