Together, Mary Dillon, Dónal O’Connor and Neil Martin create a spellbinding tapestry of traditional and contemporary sounds. Their collaborative efforts breathe new life into timeless Ulster songs and dance tunes, marrying Mary’s evocative vocals with the expressive interplay of fiddle, cello, uilleann pipes and harmonium. This musical union is a celebration of Ireland’s rich musical heritage.
Two-time All-Ireland singing champion, Mary Dillon from Dungiven, captivates audiences with a voice as pure as crystal and as deep as a spring well and her ability to interpret traditional songs. Fiddle player Dónal O’Connor has established himself as one of Ireland’s leading musicians, having played with Liam Ó Maonlaí, Duke Special, Horslips, Davy Spillane, Steve Cooney, to name but a few!
Accomplished cellist and composer Neil Martin has an exceptional ability to seamlessly traverse the boundaries between traditional and classical music genres in Ireland, creating a unique musical identity. His work has been performed from Ground Zero to Mostar Bridge and the Royal Albert Hall.
