The Story So Far...
Celtic Legacy formed in 1997 and from then until 2009, the band released 3 albums with different line-ups.
Since 2012 the band has been a studio project which released its latest album, 'The Lie of the Land' in 2015.
It's been an interesting journey, which hasn't reached its end just yet.
Early Legacy
The band's first proper line-up differs from the ones that succeeded it in that it featured a violin player, instead of a second guitar player. This incarnation of the band recorded Celtic Legacy's eponymous debut album in 1998.
Sales of this album would eventually fund the recording of the follow up in 2003.

Ciara Roe: Violin

Classic Legacy
Celtic Legacy put a new line-up together to record its second album Resurrection in 2003.The album was entirely funded by a pre-order campaign organised by fans.
Upon release Resurrection received stellar reviews and became an underground classic. The epic title track has become the band's signature song.
Alas, much like before, this line-up was also short lived.

Late Legacy
With more upheavals in the band's ranks, inspiration for the third Celtic Legacy album, Guardian of Eternity did not come easily. While not as fondly praised as ts predecessor, the album was a solid effort nonetheless.
This line-up of the band stayed together longer than those that came before it, but money woes were to lead to an end of the band's time as a live act. The band played its final show in April 2009

The Lie of the Legacy
Following the band's break up, Dave Morrissey began work on a solo project, composing new music for a full album, but with Ciaran Ennis's later involvement, it was decided to pursue it as a Celtic Legacy album instead.
The Lie of the Land was released in early 2015 to excellent reviews.
