Includes 12 tracks of CHIEFTAINS music and audio interviews with: Sarah McLachlan, Tom Jones, Jackson Browne, Marianne Faithfull, Art Garfunkel, Ry Cooder, Ricky Skaggs, and Anjelica Huston.

The history of The Chieftains is the history of Irish music, and the story of how an unlikely group of enthusiasts came together to rescue some of the world's most beautiful music from near extinction, brought it to an audience of millions, and became acclaimed stars.

Based on exclusive and extensive interviews with band members, their families and friends, and with many of the international superstars who have recorded with them, this intimate history tells their own story for the first time, with insight, wit and charm.

Narrated by Grammy-winning singer-songwriter Nanci Griffith. Nanci's body of work includes some of music's most enduring songs (Trouble In The Fields, Gulf Coast Highway, and Outbound Plane) and her career compelled Rolling Stone Magazine to crown her the Queen of Folkability. Nanci's landmark album Other Voices, Other Rooms is considered a modern classic and she received the Grammy for Best Contemporary Folk Performance for this recording. She has also received two Grammy's for her performances on albums with The Chieftains.
