Celtic Music But With A Experimental Bend Too?
Any recommendations for someone who always enjoys celtic-tinged music like Dead Can Dance and Lorenna McKennit, but with some sense of moving it more forward, perhaps with an experimental element or progressive leanings. I know about Delerium but they seem too dance-pop. Any names to investigate, please?

Check out “Blackmore’s Night” It has become one of my favorites. Also, “Clannad”, “Enya” and “Moira”
My son likes “Ayreon” but they are more like TSO (Trans Siberian Orchestra) with some slight Celtic influence.

I like Altan, but it’s more dominantly Irish.

I really like Anuna. Celtic Cross is pretty good too, but they’re a little more indie. Hope you like!
