Songs For The Tempted

Leslie Dowdall's own choice of music and song from the last three decades.

Leslie Dowdall first found fame as the voice of In Tua Nua, the band that fused Celtic traditions with rock for seven years in the 1980s. Her solo career began in earnest with the release of her first album in 1997, the artfully entitled 'No Guilt, No Guile'. The album won high praise for the creativity, vision and the soulful vocals for so long hidden beneath the music of the past. As a result, Leslie won the 1997 'Best Solo Female' artist at the Heineken/Hot Press Music Awards. Leslie remains one of the best female singer-songwriters in Ireland today.
