Cathie Ryan: Hard Times

The Cathie Ryan Band:Hard Times

Cathie Ryan sings Stephen Foster. The quality of the video isn't all that great, but still worth a look-- and listen. "I used to think I had to be either an Irish singer or an American singer," Ryan says."It's taken me quite some time to realize I can be both, I can bring both sides of my experience as an Irish American to my music." Taking on one the great American poet/songwriters and illuminating that connection, without saying a word about any of that, is what comes through here.
