The geatest  irish-American band in the traditional Celtic music, Solas has been earning raves since 1996 with its hard driving, powerful blend of traditional irish & contemporary ideas.

Led by fiddle player Winifred Horan & multi - instrumentalist Seamus Egan, Solas " make mind- blowing Irish folk music, maybe the worlds best" ( The Philadelphia Enquirer). 

One of the most exciting & high - energy Irish bands playing.

Australian Singer/Songwriter & cousin of kate Bush, Beck Sian defies description and is certainly in a category of her own, whether she is covering traditional folk songs or launching into one of her own mesmerising numbers playing guitar, tin whistle or the Didgiridoo!

"bucket loads of charisma and a fabulous, enchanting delivery" ( Steve Harley BBCRadio2 presenter & Cockney Rebel)
