Daniel Hope, Air Ensemble, Rea Garvey, TSSO, Lúnasa, James & Jeanne Galway: Irish Roots 2LP

Daniel Hope's latest album Irish Roots embodies his deep connection to Ireland, inherited from his paternal great-grandfather who left Waterford for South Africa in the 1890s. Although never residing in Ireland, Hope's fascination with its culture led to the creation of the documentary "Celtic Dreams: Daniel Hope’s Hidden Irish History".
