Seven Days: Vermont's Independent Voice

Charmed Life

She was born in a town called Knockananna, and has the flaming-red hair to prove it. But the real reason Órla Fallon is an emblem of the Emerald Isle? Her music. The Celtic Woman breakaway artist excels on harp and vocals, and most often sings in Irish Gaelic. Her latest album, this spring’s My Land, is a celebration of her home country’s music, geography and culture — and a PBS special taped in conjunction with its release features her and a lineup of famous Dubliners performing in locales around the island. Riverdance it ain’t, but Fallon’s still running on that luck o’ the Irish.
