About Ciara Carruthers

Traditional Irish folk a cappella singer, with a range of both unique and recognisable songs.
Singer (soprano)
Edinburgh

My days revolve around learning and perfecting new songs. I am insatiable in devouring traditional folk songs, mostly Irish but also from farther afield. When I sing, I get lost in the music, presenting the piece before me as a being unto itself, something that I hope touches people and brings them into the song's world, whisking them away for the duration of the piece. My passion and love for this artform is evident each time I sing.

Ciara sang a number of Irish songs in honour of the passing of our dear father, and she really did the service and the songs justice. We would recommend her singing.

We invited Ciara to perform at our party hosted by our Irish group in Oslo and she was professional and punctual, and a beautiful singer!
