Arty McGlynn, Nollaig Casey, Chris Newman & Marie Ni Chathasaig

Two of the most important names in Irish music, legendary guitarist Arty McGlynn (ex Van Morrison band, Planxty, Patrick Street, Dé Danann…) and virtuoso fiddler Nollaig Casey (ex Planxty and Coolfin), who between them have played with every major Irish artist of the last thirty years, are joined by brilliant, innovative harper Máire Ní Chathasaigh and Britain’s finest flat-picking guitarist Chris Newman. These two world-renowned duos have combined to record a stunning new CD for release this autumn. “Blazing guitar and dancing harp”, coupled with Chris’s “subversively witty introductions”, Nollaig’s “exquisite fiddle-playing and superb vocals” and Arty’s rhythmic genius, guarantee an extraordinary and captivating evening.
