Ciaran Tourish, Cathal Hayden, & Kevin Doherty
Join us for a night of incredible music with three of Ireland's best traditional musicians - Ciaran Tourish, Cathal Hayden, and Kevin Doherty.
Ciaran Tourish hails from Buncrana in East Co. Donegal. Although Ciaran started playing the tin whistle at an early age, he soon took up the fiddle under the guidance of local legendary fiddler and teacher, Dinny McLaughlin.
He was a member of well known Irish traditional band Altan from 1990 until 2017
In addition to his mastery of the dance music tradition, Ciaran’s quick ear, love of harmony and counterpoint have led to his talent being in demand as a valued collaborator on many Irish and non-Irish music projects with a wide range of musicians and singers including Paul Brady, Matt Molloy, Clannad, Mary Black, Maura O’Connell, Mark Knopfler, Brendan Quinn, Máirtín O’Connor, Dolores Keane, Dé Danann, The Chieftains, Macklemore & Ryan Lewis, The Everly Brothers, John Prine, Ricky Skaggs, Emmylou Harris, Alison Krauss, Jerry Douglas and Tim O’Brien to name just a few……
He released his first solo recording “Down the Line” in 2005 featuring guest musicians Arty McGlynn, Paul Brady, Maura O’Connell, Tim O’Brien, Alison Krauss and Jerry Douglas among others.
Kevin Doherty is without doubt one of the most gifted singer song-writers in Ireland. He has so far produced four fine solo albums, his most recent album was ‘Seeing Things’, ‘Sweet Water’, ‘Telegraph’ and ‘Strange Weather’ which was recorded in Woodstock Studios and featured Levon Helm from’ The Band’. Kevin has worked with many of the greats in Irish music, including Henry McCullough, (from Wings), James Delaney (The Van Morrison Band) and Arty McGlynn.
Cathal Hayden needs no introduction to anyone even remotely familiar with traditional Irish music. A multiple All-Ireland Championship winner, he achieved world-wide recognition as one of the founder members of Four Men and a Dog. He is one of Ireland’s top fiddlers and his solo banjo performances are quite simply show-stopping.
