Ciorras in Concert with Special Guest Donal Lunny

ciorras

Ciorras were formed as a band in 2010 when the individual members were among a large number of young musicians who featured in the hit TG4 series, Lorg Lunny. This exciting new band have a diverse repertoire of newly composed tunes sitting comfortable alongside the more traditional repertoire and a selection of lesser-known songs. With an impressive assortment of instruments between them including fiddle, concertina, pipes, piano accordion, keyboards, percussion, low-whistles, voice and no less than 4 exceptional flute players, the possibilities are endless.

 

donal lunny

Donal Lunny is a legend in his own lifetime. Lunny has been at the forefront of the evolution of traditional Irish music for more than thirty-five years and has participated within the renaissance of traditional Irish music in that time period. Veteran of Plantxy, The Bothy Band and Moving Hearts, to name a few, he stands as one of the greats of Irish music.
