Review

For Cathie Ryan, it's a long, long way back to Tipperary, and the road goes through Michigan. The Detroit-reared singer is a first-generation American; her mother is from Kerry, and her father from Tipperary. Ryan, however, was schooled in Gaelic ways, including sean nos (solo) singing. Ryan's debut (following seven years with the women's group Cherish the Ladies) draws on her heritage and her New World upbringing with effortless grace. Traditionals ("Ned of the Hill," "Dark Moll of the Glen") mix with more contemporary material (Dougie MacLean's "Garden Valley) and three Ryan originals, including the autobiographical "When Detroit Was Burning." It's a formula that serves Ryan well on this vastly promising debut. --Steven Stolder
