A big confident voice, beautifully crafted songs, set against backing from Frankie Gavin, Tim Edey and Eugene Kelly. This is Michelle's debut album and features a great selection of songs by some of Ireland's leading songwriters.

Michelle Lally is a powerful new singer who has just emerged from Galway. Her renditions of contemporary easy listing Irish music are impossible to resist with the gentle charm of her immediately identifiable pure tone. Like many of Ireland's great female vocalists of recent times including, Mary Black, Dolores Keane, Maura O'Connell, etc. Michelle's undoubted talent has been brought to the fore by the legendary Frankie Gavin of De Dannan. Michelle is currently the lead vocalist with Frankie's new group 'Hibernian Rhapsody' who recently performed with The Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra in Liverpool.

"A voice that lingers in the mind's ear, when the enchanted listening is done."
Jimmy McCarthy.

"Michelle's voice is truly beautiful and beautifully true." (Mick Hanly)
