Since its start in 2007, Celtic Thunder has found appeal way beyond the performers' home countries of Ireland and Scotland. Their tours take them on the worldwide stage, and their shows have been featured many times on PBS. Celtic Thunder members George Donaldson and Neil Byrne have been a part of each one of those PBS programs, including the most recent called "Mythology." They talk to host Stephanie Aldrich about their early music influences their individual paths that led them to become part of Celtic Thunder.
Presented by Tennova Healthcare, Up Close is produced by East Tennessee PBS.

RIP George Donaldson 🙏 😢 🇨🇦 🍁 🇬🇧 🇮🇪 My biggest influences to Celtic Music and the Celtic Mythology came from listening 🎶 to Canadian music bands The Rankin Family fròm Mabou, Nova Scotia on Cape Breton Island as they sing in both English and Scottish Gaelic songs 🎵 The Other Nova Scotian band from Cape Breton Island as well are The Barra MacNeil's who also sing songs 🎵 in English and Scottish Gaelic too. And now I came across these young talented Irish singers plus a Scottish singer in the band The Celtic Thunder. All of them are fantastic singers with an amazing talent 👏 😊 I would love to have a Celtic cross necklace just like the one the Celtic Thunder uses on their stage for props. God bless them and their family's. Amen 🇨🇦 🙏 🇨🇦 🙏

I’m loving this, it’s helping me get to know the boys since I’m such a long way from them and never likely to see them or meet them. I love them so much indeed.🎉❤❤❤😅😅

I don’t think I have much more to say, not a big talker. Be simply found a new group and fallen in love with them all. Everyone of them is so utterly delightful. 😂❤😂❤

I feel this group is a type that make you feel good and at times get a good laughter from the way they play each song. I am glad I found you

i have a cd that says they are Celtic Thunder but does not include a single member of the the group as we known them. Did they have to buy the name from the older one?

@judithwhite3801 9 жыл бұрын

There is another group also known as Celtic Thunder. I believe there is an arrangement between them.

Jessica Castle original members of CT were Ryan, Keith and Neil, George soon after, then Damian as a boy, making 5 as their official line up. I have a recording of Neil with a punk look and some facial hair, Keith was the bonniest with that blonde hair and Ryan looking much younger.
