Traditional Irish Folk Band from County Galway

Formed in March 2024, this dynamic five-piece from County Galway brings a fresh and energetic twist to the rich tradition of Irish folk music. Each member draws from diverse musical backgrounds, creating a sound that is both authentic and uniquely contemporary.

In just a few months, they have captured widespread attention on social media platforms like TikTok and Instagram, rapidly building a loyal global following. Their viral success led to a collaboration with the NFL, featuring in the announcement of the Pittsburgh Steelers game at Croke Park.

Following a successful nationwide tour of Ireland, the band took their music across the Atlantic for a two-month residency at the renowned Raglan Road Irish Pub in Orlando, Florida—bringing the spirit of Irish folk to a new and enthusiastic American audience.

Rooted in tradition but driven by innovation, this Galway-based ensemble is quickly becoming one of the most exciting new voices in Irish folk music.
