The Mac Gloinn brothers – Brian and Diarmuid – first performed in the streets together as buskers and have since evolved into a robust collective – a sonically unique ensemble featuring layered acoustic and electric guitars, trumpet, upright bass, Moog synthesizer, harmonium, bouzouki, fiddle, and the blood harmony of the siblings’ distinctive, multi-hued voices. Having been described as “being at the fore of a new wave of Irish folk”, they have won Best Track, Best Album and Best Folk Group at RTE Radio 1 Folk Awards.
