Strings of Brigid performs the most beautiful Celtic and folk music. The group's repertory focuses on traditional Irish and Scottish songs and contemporary English folksongs. Jennifer Kingsland leads the group with her ethereal vocals and Celtic harp. Chappell Kingsland crafts the emotionally powerful arrangements, plays guitar and piano, and sings backing vocals. Guest musicians play cello and violin, sometimes adding a bass line, an accompaniment, or a soaring melody.
Brigid is a Celtic goddess with three personas and musical powers; in one story, she put a spell on several harps, their music enchanting all those in the hall. The group loves channeling that same magic — playing for live audiences, weaving together music, myth, and memory to create performances that feel timeless, intimate, and deeply alive. |
The Weaving is the debut full-length album from Strings of Brigid, arriving Summer 2025. Drawing from centuries-old Celtic melodies, haunting folk ballads, and original arrangements, the album blends harp, voice, and strings into a sound both ancient and vividly new. These are songs of longing, transformation, love, and fire — all woven together with cinematic depth and mythic storytelling.
Though the group has released a dozen singles across streaming platforms, The Weaving marks a major milestone: a fully realized body of work that captures the spirit of their live performances and the intimacy of their collaborative process. From spellbound harps to wind-swept shores, this is music meant to be felt as much as heard — and to carry listeners into a deeper, older world. |
