Mary Black is one of my favourite female Irish singers. I have seen her in concert many times.

Mary Black's distinguished career has spanned over 25 years from her early days in Dublin folk clubs through ever-escalating success with seven platinum solo albums one of which - No Frontiers - spent fifty- six weeks in the Irish Top 30.  Needless to say Mary Black is a seminal figure in Irish musical history and one of the artists responsible for it's blossoming on a global level.
