Granuaile is a blend of Classical and Irish Folk Music written by Shaun Davey for singer Rita Connolly.

It is based on the life and times of the 16th century Irish pirate queen Gráinne O'Mally, who was also known as Granuaile.

The album was recorded using a 35 piece chamber orchestra joined by uilleann pipe soloist Liam O'Flynn, acoustic guitar, Irish harp and percussion, and special guest Donal Lunny on bouzouki.
