"Moves the music of Ireland in captivating new directions." The New Yorker
A transatlantic, transgenerational supergroup, The Gloaming takes Celtic music to breathtaking new heights while staying true to its roots. Two Irish music legends—fiddler Martin Hayes and vocalist Iarla Ó Lionáird—are joined by New York indie rock pianist Thomas Bartlett (aka Doveman, a colleague of Sufjan Stevens and The National) plus guitar and hardanger fiddle to spin epic new interpretations of ancient Gaelic dance tunes and ballads.
Funded in part by the Robert Grinnell Fund for the Hopkins Center.
