Caitriona O'Leary

Caitríona O’Leary is an Irish vocalist celebrated for her enchanting interpretations of early music and traditional Irish song. With a voice that effortlessly bridges ancient and modern, she’s carved out a niche reviving historical works like *The Wexford Carols*—18th-century Irish carols she’s brought to life across multiple albums. Her releases, such as *Sleepsongs* (a haunting collection of lullabies) and *I Am Stretched On Your Grave* (reimagining dark, poetic folk ballads), showcase her ability to blend haunting storytelling with minimalist arrangements. O’Leary often collaborates with early music ensembles and isn’t afraid to sprinkle contemporary flair into her projects, like her genre-blurring *Both Sides Now*, which nods to her eclectic tastes. A founder of the ensemble Dúlra, she’s become a guardian of Ireland’s musical heritage while keeping it fresh for new ears.
