BEOGA
The unique sound of Beoga, the Irish five-piece traditional band based in County Antrim, features the twin dueling accordions of Seán Óg Graham and Damian McKee, four-time All-Ireland bodhrán champion Eamon Murray and pianist Liam Bradley along with the vocals of one of Ireland's premier young singers, Niamh Dunne. With their signature mix of Irish traditional music with nuances of bluesy riffs, Astor Piazzola-style jazz, and a raunchy New Orleans jamboree vibe, they are a band that like to have fun. With their new 2011 release 'how to tune a fish' attracting fresh critical acclaim, Beoga are set to confirm their reputation as the most audacious Irish band rooted in trad today. With their unique blend of inventive arrangements, virtuosi instrumental talents and beautiful vocals, Beoga's popularity continues to flourish as they captivate audiences on a global scale.
