The Gloaming (Closing Concert)

The Gloaming – Highly acclaimed Irish American Contemporary Folk Music Super Group

Festival 2014 will come to a rapturous finish at Music Club with popular Irish American folk band, The Gloaming, connecting the rich Irish folk tradition with the New York contemporary music scene. Performing a distinctive style of their own beyond traditional Irish music, they feature memorable melodies alongside deep felt performances, rooted in tradition but scoured of sentimentality.

Formed in 2011 and selling out Dublin’s National Concert Hall and a host of European festivals, the relatively new band is made up with some of Ireland’s finest folk musicians each with their own successful individual careers, including Martin Hayes (Irish Fiddler), Iarla Ó Lionáird (Irish vocalist), Caoimhín Ó Raghallaigh (Irish 10 string violinist) as well as Dennis Cahill (American Guitarist) and New York pianist/producer Thomas Bartlett aka Doveman.
