Aoife Ní Fhearraigh, or simply Aoife (Irish pronunciation: [ˈiːfʲə nʲiː ˈaɾˠiː]) is an Irish singer. A well-known interpreter of Irish Gaelic songs, she released her first recording in 1991 and worked with Moya Brennan to produce her much acclaimed 1996 album Aoife.[1] She reached international recognition in 1998 when her song "The Best is Yet to Come" was used for the Metal Gear Solid Soundtrack.[2] To date, Aoife has worked closely with artists such as Phil Coulter, Roma Downey and Brian Kennedy, and she has also toured the US, Japan and Europe.[3]
