"I first heard BOHINTA some years back on CELTIC WOMAN, a compilation cd. The BOHINTA tracks stood out. I searched for their record, and, not finding it, ended up special ordering it. When I heard the entire spectrum of SESSIONS, I bought myself a second copy. Id idn't want to risk not having this cd on hand. A back-up was needed. That should tell you how highly I think of this work. Aine Furey's voice is..indescribable. Rich, haunting, unusual. Her brother's voice is less unusual, but full of passion and heart. My favorite songs--Bonnie Winds, 13 Wishes, In My Hand, Halflight (which has some killer pipes going on)--are those with that special haunting touch. Aine and Martin's voices, blending, making a special magic.Please buy this cd. Give yourself a treat.*Mir* looking forward to ANY release by BOHINTA..."

"1.)Light canles and Incense 2.)Put "Sessions", by Bohinta in your CD player 3.) Pour a good Irish Ale, or Guinness 4.)Turn out the lights and hit play. What you are hearing is some of the best modern Celtic Rock to be recorded. I first heard this in a music store in Cirenchester, England, and loved it immediately. I highly recommend this CD to anyone who enjoys GOOD music."

"Martin is a songwriter of great substance. "Sessions", Bohinta's 1st album, shows the amazing potential of this group, as well as giving us a treat to what they have already accomplished. A must-have recording from the first track to the last, music that is this hauntingly beautiful, yet contemporary, is a rare find.I met Martin when he was touring here in Australia and he says that Bohinta will finish recording their 2nd album soon.We are all waiting eagerly for Bohinta's return, and for a chance to hear the new album."
