Beoga - Saturday 2nd June 2012
With their new 2011 release ‘how to tune a fish‘ attracting fresh critical acclaim, Beoga are confirming 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, they are not afraid to incorporate other genres’ nuances into their music. From bluesy riffs to Astor Piazzola-style jazz, to a raunchy New Orleans jamboree vibe, their music always returns to a wonderfully bouncy Irish sound. The result is traditional, with a huge sense of fun and adventure and it all works – wonderfully well. The Wall Street Journal describes them as “the most exciting new traditional band to emerge from Ireland this century.” Irish Music Magazine writes, “Beoga are at the forefront of the new Irish wave.”
