Top 5 Albums for Enya Fans

By Megan Romer, About.com

If you're a fan of Celtic New Age chanteuse Enya, consider adding some of these similar artists to your collection.

1. Loreena McKennitt: An Ancient Muse

This 2006 album from Loreena McKennitt will delight Enya fans with its lush, ambient sound and impressive vocals and instrumental arrangements.

2. Sissel: My Heart

Sissel made waves (pun intended) when she sang on the soundtrack to the hit film Titanic. The soundtrack had originally been offered to Enya herself, but she declined, and the Norwegian chanteuse Sissel got the chance instead.

3. Enigma: Voyageur

Enigma is more of a musical project than an actual band, as much of the music is actually electronic. Husband and wife Michael and Sandra Cretu head up Enigma, who are perhaps best known for their song "Return to Innocence", which has appeared on dozens of television and movie soundtracks.

4. Maire Brennan: Whisper to the Wild Water

Enya fans should have no trouble finding common threads between her music and that of Maire Brennan - especially since the two women are sisters! Maire's music is slightly more traditionally Celtic than Enya's, but fans of one will likely find themselves fans of the other.

5. Lisa Gerrard: The Mirror Pool

Lisa Gerrard is a world-renowned musician whose music you're likely already familiar with: she composed and performed the soundtracks for Gladiator, Whale Rider, Ali, Man on Fire and dozens more. Her voice is remarkable and her compositions are exquisite.
