MARY MCLAUGHLIN
(Dr.) Mary McLaughlin is a singer, songwriter, and teacher who specializes in teaching Irish Gaelic songs. She has a Ph.D. in Irish Song studies, five albums, certificates in Teaching, Sound Therapy, and Shamanic studies, and is currently writing a book about the Irish Keen. She is a highly respected teacher of Irish Gaelic songs and teaches classes online as well as being a featured guest on podcasts and online summits. Her Mel Bay book 'Singing in Irish Gaelic' marked the beginning of her teaching career in Gaelic song, over twenty years ago. Using her phonetic/aural system she continues to teach in this idiom and, needless to say, her repertoire has expanded. Her popular online classes are The Song and the Story (an introduction to Irish Traditional singing); The Songs of Irish Faerie (in both English and Irish languages); The Ancient Irish Keen (the ancient Irish Death Lament which is having somewhat of a resurgence in interest) and A Gaelic Christmas (an annual celebration of Christmas through Gaelic song).
