In what is fast becoming a firm annual tradition on the folk scene, Cara and her band will once again capture the mystery of Christmas with a collection of songs ancient and modern, providing a welcome reminder that the festive season can be about more than just commercialism. A far cry from Jingle Bells and Santa Baby, Cara is joined by her wonderful band who weave Celtic and folksy rhythms alongside reverent and atmospheric carols while Cara holds the darkness at bay with the purity of her voice.

Throughout an enviable career which has seen her explore opportunities to tread many different paths – from releasing folk crossover albums on indie label Rough Trade to working on Disney soundtracks and collaborations with leading UK dance DJ/producers – Cara has continuously chosen to firmly plant herself within the landscape of her cultural heritage, occupying a position at the very top of the Irish Folk genre. This extraordinary singer has been captivating audiences, winning awards and achieving exceptional acclaim for over 20 years, with (according to Mojo magazine) ‘quite possibly the world’s most beautiful female voice’.
