Hands down this is the highest energy performing group you'll ever have the pleasure of seeing.
The artistic performance of their music will have you humming days after they've returned to their
home base of Loudonville, Ohio. Four beautiful young ladies take their version of
Celtic/Rock/Folk to a whole new level.
"They're fresh, they're vibrant" by Ed Gleason
"They're fresh, they're vibrant, and they play with the passion that makes all the difference."
If you like the Irish rock and roll flavor of Bothy Band and the angelic voice talent of Celtic Woman, you will be delighted with (Maidens IV). It's not that these girls are as good as some of the other Celtic bands with greater name recognition; they're better. They're fresh, they're vibrant, and they play with the passion that makes all the difference."

"Tradition with flair, and renewed energy" by
Taxi: The World's Leading A&R Tradition with flair, (and) renewed energy, (shows a) sense of appreciation for these
basic melodies. Chord motion, interplay between the vocals and the violins, guitar
is the highlight here.... Well put together.... Your joy comes through. Play on! "An explosion of strings greets the ears" by
Celtic MP3 Music MagazineFour-part harmony.....and......four sisters! Maidens IV is made up of Havilah, Heather, Abigail and Tabitha. Originally a duo of two sisters named, you guessed it, Maidens II, the sisters have all joined forces and combined their considerable talents to bring out the best in the Celtic and Folk style music that they play.
An explosion of strings greets the ears with the first track on the CD which jumps right in, highlighting the considerable talent of the musicians. Next, on "Lark In The Morning" you begin to hear the pretty harmonies these ladies can form together as they hop and skip their way through a complex and lovely song.
Their last CD, "Charm and Fire" (Maidens III) showed the ladies to have mastered the instruments they play, and now they are tackling even more complex arrangements--truly an amazing whirl of sounds and rhythms here, and each track has something unique to offer.
The voices, although still sweet and youthful, have a new maturity to them that brings an added dimension to the sounds they bring forth. Please don't miss track 11, "Fiddlers Magic," for the obvious reason....although, in truth, you don't need to get that far into the CD to note the skill these ladies play with. The title of the album really brings to life what is going on here--"Four Aflame"--for the fire can be heard in the instruments that these lovely ladies command.
If you know anything about music--this CD will blow you away. And even if you don't--it's still a darn good listen! These ladies are a favorite of mine.
