fRoots2013 MarchByByBob Walton2013 March"Cathie Ryan is another wonderful Irish/American singer who passed through the ranks of Cherish The Ladies in the dim and distant past; after a seven years absence from touring and recording due to personal crises, domestic setbacks and changes of continent, this album marks a thoroughly welcome return from the struggle - Through Wind And Rain as it were. Another impressive cast of musicians (...) provides a subtle and low-key backdrop for those wonderful and - unsurprising in the circumstances - somewhat meditative vocals ... There's a live feel to the album - overall Through Wind And Rain is a gem".
