Pronounced
KAY-lee, Ceili Rain is a departure from many things; among them, the ordinary.
Pairing rock-n-roll with traditional music is not a novel concept, but when
you can make an audience dance a jig to songs about death and hell, now that's
an art.
Over the past year in particular,
Ceili Rain has grown an even wider fan base and has earned incredible critical
applause
Erasers on Pencils
Ceili
Rain is a unique band that has its own blend of traditional and contemporary
Celtic music. Ceili Rain's CD, Erasers on Pencils, shows this blend in a mix
of songs that takes you from sheer joy to deep contemplation. It makes you FEEL
life, not just live it; experience God, not just believe in Him.
It is not just the musical aspect that achieves this, but the lyrics as well. The songs, in true Celtic fashion, are deeper than first hearing or reading the words can reveal. The song "Jigorous" is a prime example of this. It is a song that, at first, seems to be a frivolous musical piece meant to just make you happy, and then you begin to really hear the words. It is about a mother suffering from an illness that is robbing her of her memory, but not of her ability to love her family and to live with the joy of heaven. It is about loving and caring and enjoying each moment God gives us with those we love.
