Moya Brennan appears on The Chieftain’s new album
San Patricio
Moya Brennan has made an appearance on The Chieftain’s new album! Moya, who has appeared on a number of Chieftains albums makes a stunning contribution to the ‘San Patricio’ album. It was produced The Chieftains and Ry Cooder and has a huge Mexican influence. The six-time Grammy winners’ album also features Liam Neeson, Los Tigres del Norte, and dozens of other celebrated Mexican, American and Irish musicians and singers. ‘San Patricio’ brings to life the story of the San Patricio Battalion, Irish-Americans who deserted the United States Army to join the Mexican side in the Mexican-American War. Moya performs the song ‘Lullaby for the Dead’. You can hear samples online or watch a documentary on the album and its story over at Amazon.
