Very excited tonight to hear from the Celtic Music group IONA! I have seen them in concert many times and they put on a wonderful show. Especially their circle dance is always a favorite with the kids.

I remember they even have a few Celtic Dancers that come along with the shows.

Looking forward to receiving their CD's and we will get them up on the broadcast ASAP! biggrin.gif

I've got Open Sky in my New Age collection on the recommendation of a Hastings employee. Granted not my A 100 favorite, but I certainly don't regret the purchase smile.gif Looking forward to hearing them here. Good music biggrin.gif

Hi Rose!

I'm not sure where the band is from (though I believe they are Irish), but I know that the singer's name is Joanna Hogg. I like Iona too and look forward to hearing more of their music! Thanks Mac!

Oops! That should have been Joanne Hogg!

And if you get a chance, the Christian CD that she released with Christian artist Margaret Becker and Clannad's Máire Brennan, called In Christ Alone, is excellent too IMHO!

Oh I love Joanne Hogg! Her vocals are perfect. I found this website on them. Looks like the band is from all over, even from the states!

OK guys, back up 20 and punt! Are we talking Iona, the Christian praise group, or Iona, the Celtic trad group? My money is on the latter, given this site......
If so, the lead singer is Barbara Ryan, and she is a super nice person. They are based outside of Washington, DC.

Oops! I wasn't aware that there was another band called Iona either! MacFive, can you clarify this one for us? Which Iona is it? (I fear 3Ravens is right, but the other Iona is good too! smile.gif)

I'd always filed the CD I have as New Age Christian. Pretty certain the group is Irish.

My favorite track here has to be "Wave After Wave"

I'll be darned. I didn't know there was another Iona. The problem is that while Iona (The Christian Praise Group) is definitely Christian, they are also of the Celtic persuasion. So while they may not be "trad", I would say that either could be discussed here. (I have seen the likes of Wolfstone and Seven Nations on here, which are definitely celtic rock.) Man, that's confusing. Thanx for letting us know, though!
