Folk Bands and Artists
Dermot Byrne, Steve Cooney & Brid Harper
Three of Ireland’s most well-known and revered musicians: Dermot Byrne was awarded TG4’s ‘Traditional Musician of the Year’ in 2013. From Buncrana in Co. Donegal, a former member of ALTAN, he is recognised as one of the great accordion players of his generation. Tyrone resident, Bríd Harper is a senior ‘All-Ireland Fiddle Champion’ and is enormously respected both as a teacher and performer. Australian born guitarist, bassist, producer and didgeridoo player, Steve Cooney is one of the most dynamic and exciting, modern performers in traditional music. Together this stunning trio are sublime.
