Gràdh is Gonadh Guth ag aithris' (Love and Loss A Lone Voice) is the powerful 2017 album of pure and unaccompanied traditional Scottish Gaelic songs by Christine Primrose, widely recognized and acknowledged as one of the great singers of her generation. Over three decades on from her groundbreaking debut, the cultural landscape and personal timing is right for this recording of clarity, poignancy and depth from a remarkable and mature voice. Laid bare and given space to breathe and speak, the emotion and feeling in this work make a connection that transcends language. This new release is an important milestone in the career of an important artist and singer, stripped back to basics and reflecting her earliest and deepest sense of what Gaelic song is and should be.
