Homeland' Celtic Woman Official Music Video
Everything about the music video for Celtic Woman’s new song ‘Homeland’ is beautiful.
There is just so much to enjoy, from the enchanting views of Johnstown Castle in County Wexford, Ireland to the sound of the angelic voices and harmonies from the women singing.
The group Celtic Woman is known for their joyful, uplifting Irish sound, and the song ‘Homeland’ is no different.
“This is my homeland, my heart is here
These are the voices I long to hear
No matter how far I may roam
I have a homeland, I have a home.”
These are the lyrics that you hear as you see the group rehearsing and getting ready for their performance at Johnstown Castle.
Celtic Woman is an all-female Irish ensemble that has been around since 2004. The group was created by David Kavanagh, Sharon Browne, and David Downes.
The original Celtic Woman was comprised of vocalists Chloë Agnew, Órla Fallon, Lisa Kelly and Méav Ní Mhaolchatha, and fiddler Máiréad Nesbitt.
The current performers in Celtic Woman are vocalists Máiréad Carlin, Éabha McMahon, and Megan Walsh as well as instrumentalist Tara McNeill.
The unique thing about Celtic Woman is that the group members have changed throughout the years. While this can usually lead to the end of a group’s career, it seems to be an asset for Celtic Woman.
“I think when people come along to see us, they know that,” says Chloë Agnew, who was part of the original Celtic Woman. “Celtic Woman has new faces all the time. It’s ever-changing, it’s ever-fresh, it’s ever-new.
Celtic Woman’s new album is titled ‘Celtic Woman: Ancient Land.’ It includes a mixture of traditional Irish songs and contemporary arrangements, and their song ‘Homeland’ is the second track on the album.
The group’s North American tour just started on February 28, 2019. They will be touring all around the United States through May of this year.
As you enjoy listening to the song ‘Homeland,’ remember that even though we might feel at home in a certain place on this earth, our true home is in heaven with our Creator. Like the scripture says, “we are citizens of heaven, where the Lord Jesus Christ lives. And we are eagerly waiting for him to return as our Savior.”
