Ceili Rain is a "family friendly" band that appeals to audiences ranging from ages 3 to 93. Its unique sound and soulful lyrics have gained the attention and affection of critics and fans around the world. It isn't bagpipes, button accordions and tin whistles, it's dreams and hopes and encouragement in the face of disappointments, trials and fears in the musical framework of pop/rock. It's not guitar, bass and drums, it's a God-given shared creative impulse. "Ceili" (say Kay-lee) is a Gaelic (Irish) word that means "party", specifically one with live musicians, dancing, general merriment, an all-ages crowd. "Coeli" is a form of the Latin word for "heaven". Rain is the stuff that falls from the sky. Thus, Ceili Rain is a "downpour of heavenly partiness".
