"Who knew one of the most entertaining, evocative, extremely well versed bands in traditional Irish music would turn up in of all countries, Germany…..however, they did, and we very pleased to be the agency that is breaking them into North America. "Cara, is a band that is on a level with the best of the best in Irish music today. Whether it is doing very authentic traditional styles, or soaring to new heights with a very original song, this band knows its’ stuff."

"...Lead vocalist Gudrun actually has a tremendous voice and one clearly capable of expressing the actual import of the various elements of the lyrics she sings. Instrumentally, Cara adds the kind of support essential to reinforcing the message of the songs. Together they combine to provide a compelling brew whose elements include the aforementioned songs (The King and the Fair Maid, Three Ravens, Sir John and False, False) together with mellifluous playing of an assortment of traditional Irish tunes as well as some which are self-composed or written by friends.“
