Performance Reviews
The best ren faire musical act I've seen at faires. --Marc Gunn, Brobdingnagian Bards
Nancy is Great at what she does and I hope she will be a regular at our festival an a new friend as well. --Lady Melissa, Hamlet of Mid-Missouri
It was great listening to you perform again. All the kids in our company loved you and were singing 'Dancing Sailor' and 'Rattlin' Bog' when we got back to camp. Even my youngest daughter Amy told me what she liked best at the fair was Lady Nancy. --Carolyn Sittser, Baldwin, MO
CD Reviews
singing, dancing everywhere
"singing, dancing everywhere", the new album issued by Nancy Daily-Green is certainly the most objective release to come on the market in the last century. Aimed as it is at the younger generation of Irish music lovers it serves as an ideal introduction to perhaps the greatest folk music the world knows.
The tracks are all carefully chosen and beautifully executed and seem to grow naturally from each other in both the Irish and English Languages. The gorgeous melodic voice of Ms. Daily-Green coupled with her profound understanding of Irish folk-songs and traditional music has an inestimable bearing in this regard for in all tracks we have simplicity, musicality and above all, joy which is what any such album aimed at the young should be about. Most of what she has embodied in her album could well be taken on board by others working in the same field. Well done Nancy Daily-Green! --Séamus Duffy Sec., Coiste Mhuigh Eó. C.C.É, Comhaltas Ceoltóiri Éireann
I am the woman from the family that told you about waiting a year to see you again so I could get your CD. My son who was sitting next to me, the redhead who covered his mouth while singing, to Dancing Sailor can't stop repeating this song on your CD. He loves it so much. Our whole family enjoyed hearing the CD on our trip to KC. It will be enjoyed for a long time. --Thank you and God Bless your musical giftedness, Ann Lif, Lincoln, NE
Not often I find great traditional Celtic songs, but a couple years ago, I met Nancy Daily-Green. I talked to Nancy recently. She was telling me about her trip to Ireland where she was able to find several of absolute gems that she put on her new album. "Baidin Fheidhlimidh" is one such gem. Not only is it great Irish song sung in Irish gaelic, but like much of her music it is something that is just enjoyable by children as adults. --Marc Gunn
Coventina's Well - Various
"Artist Nancy Daily Green provides a clear link to the past with her track "Baiden Fheidhlimidh". Combining her vocals with hammered dulcimer and concertina she provides a refreshing track full of traditional Irish flavor. It is truly no wonder that she was voted Kansas City Renaissance Festival's Best Individual Musical Performer in 2003. Again, for those unfamiliar with her work, this track should provide enough motivation to begin hunting down her other recordings." --Modern Bard
Absolutely great!
Reviewer: LORELLA LOFTUS
Brilliant music - fabulous CD! I loved the diversity of the selections. It's hard to choose a favorite from so much good stuff. Your compilation rocks! Look forward to more of them. And by the way, I loved the cover art.
Good array of Celtic styles
Reviewer: Jen Clower-Brown
As compilations go, it is sometimes difficult to gather songs from various artists and make them fit together. Coventina's Well contains a colorful selection of vocals, instrumentals, ballads, comedy, and danceable Celtic tunes sure to please most everyone.
