Loreena McKennitt was Celtic before Celtic was cool.
The Canadian musician/singer/composer became fascinated with Celtic music and lore decades ago, and has been delighting audiences ever since.
Good thing for her fans that she did not follow through on an earlier plan to become a veterinarian. She performs locally in Redding (March 20), Grants Pass (March 22), and Eugene (March 25), and gives us a piece of her mind and work before her arrival.
