Enya

Enya, born Eithne Pádraigín Ní Bhraonáin on May 17, 1961, is an Irish singer, songwriter, and musician. Raised in Gaoth Dobhair, an Irish-speaking area, Enya grew up in a musical family and began her career in 1980 with the Celtic folk band Clannad. In 1982, she decided to pursue a solo career and started working with manager and producer Nicky Ryan and his partner Roma. Enya's unique sound emerged over the next four years, combining multitracked vocals and keyboards with elements of Celtic, classical, church, jazz, new age, world, pop, and Irish folk. Enya is the best-selling Irish solo artist and one of the top-selling Irish music acts, after U2.
