Winner of two BBC Folk Awards 2017, The Horizon Award for best newcomer and Best Traditional Track, Daoirí Farrell is one of the most important traditional singers to emerge in the last decade.
Dónal Lunny : ‘I’ve been listening to Daoirí ’s emerging sounds since first hearing him at the Góilin Singers Club in Dublin when he was a young lad….always a treat to hear him sing.’
Christy Moore : ‘It does n’t get much better than that. The real deal. What a voice.’
Mark Radcliffe, BBC Radio 2 Folk Show : ‘Daoirí played for ninety minutes. Watching, caught in the enthralling flow of the music, it felt like twenty.’
