Chapel Sessions : Rue

With Cormac MacDiarmada (fiddle, vocals), Radie Peat (concertina, harmonium, vocals), Brian Flanagan (banjo, vocals)

Rue combines the talents of Brian Flanagan with those of Cormac MacDiarmada and Radie Peat who both play with Dublin folk group 'Lynched' (seen here at St Patrick’s 2015). Together they present a truly eclectic mix of traditional songs and tunes from both sides of the Atlantic played with immutable conviction on fiddle, five-string banjo, harmonium and concertina. Expect whaling songs and murder ballads underpinned by a wash of harmonic swells and drones and a barn-dance or two thrown in for good measure.
