About — The artist
Cara Elizabeth Dillon (born July 21, 1975 in Dungiven, County Londonderry, Northern Ireland) is a Northern Irish folk singer.
In 1995, she joined the folk group Equation and signed a contract with Warner Music Group. After leaving the group, she collaborated with Sam Lakeman under the name Polar Star.
