Not Celtic (although I am partial to Silly Wizard), but in the last month or so I have gotten hooked on stuff by Eva Cassidy, a great singer who did mostly covers of other folks stuff, great covers, as well as a little of her own stuff, and some collaborations. Unfortunately she died of melanoma in 1996, right before her first solo album was published. She started getting lots of play posthumously and now has 11 albums out there, all stuff she recorded but was ignored by the music industry during her life, including great covers of "Over the Rainbow" and Sting's "Fields of Gold". Check out albums Songbird and Live at Blues Alley for great starters. You can hear some of her stuff on Wikipedia too. I have her Pandora channel bookmarked for regular play.
