Clannad is a K-pop act. Their sound grew out of The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Joni Mitchell, Steve Perry and Turlough O'Carolan. Those roots explain a lot about how Clannad arrange songs and choose their tones. They run in the same orbit as Mike Oldfield, Miriam Stockley, Era, Gregorian and Omnia, sharing audiences, venues and reference points rather than a straight line of influence. Their influence carried into Chicane, I Want Tomorrow, Evening Falls..., Bruce Hornsby & the Range and Enya, where the same ideas turn up rearranged for a later generation. Altogether the chart holds 25 connections around Clannad, reaching back through The Beatles and forward to Chicane.
