About the event
Is é Eoghan Ó Ceannabháin, gan aon amhras, ar dhuine de na hamhránaithe is fearr a tháinig as domhan an cheoil Bhaile Átha Cliath le déanaí. Tá tionchar an tsean-nóis ar a stíl go soiléir. Ag an am céanna, téann sé i ngleic le ceisteanna comhaimseartha sochaí na hÉireann. Bhuaigh sé ‘Best Folk Singer’ (RTE Radio 1’s Folk Awards) agus ‘Amhránaí na Bliana’ (Gradam Ceoil TG4) i mbliana.
Beidh tacaíocht ón ghrúpa ón cheantar seo den scoth sin, Ciara McCrickard Trio (le Ciara - amhránaí, fidil; Niall McCrickard - bodhrán, giotár & Stephen Rooney - giotár) .
Eoghan Ó Ceannabháin is without doubt one of the finest singers to spring from the bustling streets of Dublin in the past decade. His powerful vocals pay tribute to our proud sean-nós tradition, he simulandeusly addresses subjects relating to contemporary Irish society. In 2024 he was warded Dublin artist’s year, having won both Best Folk Singer at RTÉ Radio 1’s Folk Awards, and Amhránaí na Bliana / Singer of the Year at TG4’s Gradam Ceoil.
The incredible Ciara McCrickard Trio, from our own area, (Ciara - vocals, fiddle; Niall McCrickard - bodhrán & Stephen Rooney - guitar) will be supporting Eoghan.
