"Sullivan is a highly regarded vocalist with a particular interest in exploring and sustaining the philosophical roots of Celtic culture. ... poetic originals and traditional gems with the ethereal
voice and serene presence of a Celtic priestess...remarkable...evocative...."
Don Heckman, Los Angeles Times
"...Maireid Sullivan, one of the finest pure singers to come out of Ireland in the last fifty years..."
T.S. Kerrigan, American-Reporter.com |
| "We readily refer to the global brain in this communication age. I believe the emergence of women in public life will strengthen the global heart of compassion. Compassion need not be submerged, under the "glass ceiling". My mother observed that many young people have lost their conversational spontaneity because they are being educated by corporations rather than by poets. More than ever it is important that strong-willed, 'big-hearted' people become active in all aspects of public life: to bend the new shell to their liking; to popularize the free expression of their personalities, to laugh, to sing, to dance with joy, as well as to voice their concerns and express their sense of social responsibility; and to seize an opportunity to affirm the multifaceted, positive nature of humanity."

CD Review: Never Drift Apart
"Irish songstress and Celtic chronicler Mairéid Sullivan... Possessing a rich, pure voice and a poet’s vision, she has distilled her experiences into an exceptional new CD. Sullivan knows few musical boundaries and the genres on this locally produced record range from contemporary to traditional, from folk and pop to ambient new-age textures (provided by Sullivan’s partner, accomplished American guitarist, Ben Kettlewell). ...Sullivan’s music soothes and uplifts, particularly the opening title track. Her haunting cover of Ry Cooder’s classic Across the Borderline, Tommy Makem’s beautiful The Curlew Song and a gorgeous rendition of Eric Clapton’s River of Tears are standouts." ****
Mike Daly, The Age, Melbourne, Australia |

"There is magic here as sublime poetry and ancient song celebrate freedom and echo a world beyond ours. ... The result is as moving and affecting as all great art."
Kevin Childs, Australian author

Time after Time is a celebration of the great heritage of ancient Celtic, North American and Australian peoples.
"Time after Time Puts Imagery Back in the Cinema
... a film so rich in meaning and so fearless in its presentation that it cannot be linked with any standard genre of filmmaking.
T.S. Kerrigan, American Reporter Correspondent

Don Heckman, Los Angeles Times
"A lyrical and jubilant interpretation of the human spirit through time and cultures - a visual and aural feast to remind us of our common harmonious ancestry."
