Eimear Quinn has a voice of unique beauty. It truly captivates the heart of the listener. The Dubliner joined her first choir at the age of four and at fifteen she started formal vocal training at the College of Music in Dublin. She quickly developed a passion for early music; a genre that perfectly suits the pure quality of her voice, and in 1995 joined the Celtic chamber choir Anúna (of Riverdance fame). She sang as one of their principal soloists for a year-and-a-half in cities all over Europe and recorded two albums with the group. It was while singing with Anúna in the glorious surroundings of St Patrick's Cathedral in Dublin that songwriter Brendan Graham spotted the arresting quality of Eimear's voice - and thus changed the course of her career. He invited her to sing his composition 'The Voice' as Ireland's entry to the 1996 Eurovision Song Contest and she went on to win by a huge margin. .2006 is the 10th anniversary of Eimear's Eurovision win. To celebrate there will be a new album called Gatherings, which will feature many of Eimear's collaborations over the past decade.
