]]> barra macneils christmas albumThe Barra MacNeils are so definitively Canadian that it’s impossible to exclude them when putting together a collection of Christmas albums from across our nation. 

The group puts their signature stylings to oldies like "Carol of the Bells" and "O Holy Night" but the album also includes Gaelic tunes like "Annam Baile Ri’oghail Dhaibhidh," "Galician Carol" and "Taladh Chriosda." 

I will admit that I haven’t heard all of the songs but I will definitely try to pick up a copy from Amazon!
