Lane to the Glen - Sligo Traditional Trio comprising OisÃn Mac Diarmada (fiddle), Daithà Gormley (accordion), Samantha Harvey (piano, dance)
OisÃn and Daithà are steeped in the music and history of the Sligo area, having previously collaborated on ‘Fiddlers of Sligo Tunebook’, a publication which set transcriptions of the fiddle repertoire of key Sligo exponents alongside historic images and context.
Daithà Gormley is widely regarded as one of the finest button accordion players of his generation. His remarkably accomplished debut album Fiddling without a Bow brought an expressive mix of old and new tunes played with an attention to detail, and he is regarded as a conduit to past masters of Irish traditional music.
OisÃn Mac Diarmada and Samantha Harvey perform frequently with Téada, a worldwide-touring band founded by OisÃn in 2001. OisÃn and Samantha previously recorded The Green Branch, a sparkling album of fiddle and piano in 2015, with subsequent teaching and performing engagements in places such as the United States, Italy, France, and Japan.
Doors open at 2:30pm, music at 3pm, refreshments will be available for purchase.
