As they celebrate a decade of music, stories and song, they will sing their way into the hearts of those in the North West with their show at the Tamworth Regional Entertainment and Conference Centre.

Fiddler Mairead Nesbitt has been with the group for the full 10 years and said she loved returning to Australia and the lively Australian audiences.

"We can't wait to bring the show here again," she said.

"It's our 10th anniversary, so it's very special for us and we love the people here. The weather is so fantastic, the food is amazing and the people are so friendly. What's not to like?"

Nesbitt said she wanted people to be able to escape on a journey with them during the show.

"People spend their very hard-earned money to see us and we don't take that for granted," she said.

"We like to take people on a journey for two hours. The musical arrangements are a common thread through the show. It's a very dynamic show and you don't have to be of Irish heritage, because music is the ultimate communicator people can appreciate the stories, the melodies and the arrangements and, from a visual point of view, the show is absolutely stunning."

Nesbitt said they wanted the audience members to "leave their cares and stresses behind".

The violinist said she loved being part of the show because of the flexibility she had.

"I have the whole stage for my solo numbers and it's a great luxury to have," Nesbitt said.

"I can make my solos whatever I want them to be and I have that versatility and that luxury to do that. I can communicate all I want to communicate to the audience. I also love that quintessential blend that Celtic Woman has."

Being a top-class player of both traditional Celtic music and classical means Nesbitt can combine the two in unique ways.

"I love lots of things about each style and what I like to do is be the best I can be at each style," she said.

"I love improvising as well, and I think it's very important to do that. So many players can only do one or the other, but only a few can do both, and I think it's very important to create my own niche and style."

Nesbitt said she loved amalgamating the two styles, but that it was important to know the rules of both before you bent them and it had to be done with the utmost respect for both styles.

As well as performing with Celtic Woman, Nesbitt said she has loved performing with Lord of the Dance and Feet of Flames, among other shows, and playing huge venues across the world.

This includes performing for three different presidents of the United States and playing at the Pentagon.

On tour with the girls are the Celtic Tenors.

"It's great to have the guys on tour with us as well," Nesbitt said.

"We're on the same label and it just made sense to come out here together. They have great stage presence, so the audience are in for a treat."
