Mary Dillon’s debut solo album, ‘North’, was one of the most eagerly anticipated folk albums of the last 20 years. A former member of Irish band Déanta in the 1990s, the Co. Derry singer from Dungiven was absent from the music scene for over a decade but returned in 2013 with a renewed energy to showcase a diverse collection of folk songs from the Ulster singing tradition. Having spent fifteen years raising a family, occasionally stepping into the studio to lend guest vocals to some of her friends’ projects, Mary was ready to rejoin her internationally acclaimed sister Cara as one of the torch bearers of Irish traditional singing. Twice winner of the All-Ireland Singing trophy by her mid-teens, Mary came from a background immersed in Irish traditional music. She received fabulous reviews in response to her album and the Irish Music Magazine commended her by saying, "North is a warm, beautifully crafted and inviting album with Mary Dillon at her absolute zenith”
