Jacynth and Heather met in Belfast in the 1980’s. In 1998 Caim celtic harmony

arrange most of the music for their first album, Caim, Sung Prayers in the Celtic Tradition, based on the writings of David Adam, former vicar of Lindisfarne.
Pauline has played flute for many years, in orchestras and in folk sessions. She began playing clarsach in 2007. This inspired her to start writing songs.
