Not to be confused with Ciarán Brennan (journalist).
Ciarán Brennan (born 4 March, 1954) (born Ciarán Ó Braonáin) is an Irish singer, songwriter, producer and instrumentalist from Gweedore, Co Donegal.[1] He shot to fame along with his family with the hugely successful group Clannad.
Ciarán revealed to the Irish Independent newspaper in March 2007 that he had a very stormy relationship with his sister Enya and her (and ex-Clannad) producer, Nicky Ryan, especially Ryan. It stemmed from when Ryan left Clannad to work with Enya in 1981.
In the same interview, Ciarán dismissed claims that Clannad had split in 1997 because of his alcohol problem.[2]
