Bhí sí 73 bliain d&#8217;aois agus bhí sí tinn le tamall. Máire Ní Bhraonáin first achieved fame as the lead singer and harpist with the group Clannad from Dobhar in Gaoth Dobhair. Bhain Máire Ní Bhraonáin cáil amach ar an chéad dul síos mar phríomhamhránaí agus mar chláirseoir leis an ghrúpa Clannad as Dobhar i nGaoth Dobhair. Máire was the eldest of nine children – Clannad – who took music seriously since 1970. Ba í Máire an duine ba shine de naonúr clainne – Clannad – a chuaigh leis an cheol go dáiríre ó 1970. She, her sister Eithne (Enya) and her brothers captivated millions with their modern versions of Irish music before taking to the international stage and singing English songs. Chuir sí féin, a deirfiúr Eithne (Enya) agus a deartháireacha na milliúin faoi gheasa lena leaganacha nua-aimseartha ar cheoltaí Gaeilge sular thug siad faoin stáitse idirnáisiúnta agus faoi amhráin Bhéarla. It was their own Irish language song they recorded for the television series Harry&#8217;s Game in 1982 that introduced them to the wider world outside of Ireland. Ba é a n-amhrán Gaeilge féin a thaifead siad faoi choinne na sraithe teilifíse Harry&#8217;s Game i 1982 a chuir in aithne iad don saol mór taobh amuigh d&#8217;Éirinn. &#8220;The east and the west, which have always come, the moon and the sun will go&#8230; &#8220;Imeoidh soir is siar, a dtáinig ariamh, an ghealach is an ghrian &#8230; &#8221; – part of the significance of those lyrics and Máire&#8217;s magical voice together. &#8221; – cuid suntais na liricí sin agus guth draíochtúil Mháire in éineacht. From a young age, Máire was involved in music at home with her mother Máire Ní Dhúgáin, later in dance halls and in her father&#8217;s pub, Leo Brennan, and in local gigs in Gaoth Dobhair. Ó bhí Mháire ina girseach bheag bhí sí ag gabháil cheoil sa bhaile lena máthair Máire Ní Dhúgáin, níos moille i hallaí damhsa agus i dteach tábhairne a hathar, Leo Brennan, agus i ngeamaireachtaí áitiúla I nGaoth Dobhair. Much later, she recorded music with some of the greatest performers of her time, such as Bono and Shane MacGowan. I bhfad ina dhiaidh sin, thaifead sí ceol i gcuideachta roinnt de mhóroirfidigh a linne, leithéidí Bono agus Shane MacGowan. She recorded a total of 25 albums – with Clannad and on her own – and sold</stro
