Clannad are an Irish family musical group consisting of three siblings and two of their uncles. Generally considered to be a FolkMusic band, they also have considerable elements of NewAge, especially in their later albums, and have occasionally dabbled in rock music.

They most well known for performing the theme song to the television series ''Harry's Game'' and all the music for the later television series ''Series/RobinOfSherwood''. Another sibling, Music/{{Enya}}, was briefly also a member of the band before going solo and they have also recorded with Bono of Music/{{U2}}. The band predates the visual novel ''Visualnovel/{{Clannad}}'' by over twenty years, having formed in 1970; they have released sixteen full studio albums during their career.

The band planned to make a farewell tour in 2020 but this has been delayed due to the Coronavirus pandemic.

!!Clannad provides examples of the following tropes:
* BandOfRelatives: Type 2 - three siblings (plus one other briefly) and their two (now one after Pádraig Duggan's passing) uncles.
* BreakupBreakout: Semi-subverted - Music/{{Enya}}'s career is arguably more successful with a higher international profile but Clannad have done pretty well without her too.
* {{CrossOver}}: They sang a duet with Music/{{U2}} during the track "In A Lifetime" from ''Music/TheJoshuaTree''.
* LongRunnerLineUp: Aside from Music/{{Enya}}'s brief tenure with the band, they kept the same five person lineup from 1970 to 1990, then continued as a four piece when Pól Brennan left the band until 2011 when he returned and they became a five piece again, until 2016 when Pádraig Duggan passed away and they became a four piece again.
* MaleBandFemaleSinger: Moya sings lead vocals on all songs while the guys play and sing backing vocals.
* SignatureSong: The "Theme from Harry's Game", which appeared in Film/PatriotGames.
