FIDIL

Described as simply “Stunning!" (www.mustrad.org.uk), and “Mind-blowing” (www.allcelticmusic.com), Fidil are rapidly forging a reputation for exhilarating and challenging music that draws on the rich heritage of their native place. Their music making is marked by an intricate and intelligent approach that still manages to maintain the element of fiery exhuberance that is the hallmark of traditional fiddle music from Donegal. This is traditional music for the 21st century-mindful of its origins but breathtakingly exciting in its ambition and delivery..

Fidil members Ciarán Ó Maonaigh, Aidan O'Donnell & Damien McGeehan have just released their new album '3' which includes some of the music which earned them the Young Musicwide Award from Music Network.
They have limited their music to the use of only fiddles, but then again, the fiddle is a limitless instrument and Fidil are developing a fresh, avant garde sound all of their own.

Is Conallaigh iad Fidil agus seineann siad a gceol dúchasach le fuinneamh, brí agus nualacht. Tá a fuaim éagsúil féin acu a tagann ó na sean foinn ach a chuireann blas úr orthú.


Tá siad tar éis a bhéith ag seinm do Uachtarán na hÉireann, Uachtarán Croatia, Ambasáid Latvia & Iceland, chomh maith le bhéith ag seinm i Meiriceá, Macedonia, cape Breton i gCeanada agus ar fud na hÉireann le bliain anuas agus anois tá siad ag ceiléiriú dlúthdhiosca úr - Fidil '3' a láinsealú i mí na Samhna.
