Carlow’s very own Ye Vagabonds return for a special homecoming show to celebrate the release of their hugely anticipated new album Nine Waves.
Brothers Brían and Diarmuid Mac Gloinn’s harmony-rich folk is influenced by Irish traditional music, Appalachian singing and the 1960s revival.
Nine Waves follows the duo’s standalone single I’m A Rover which won an RTE Radio One Folk Award. Ye Vagabonds were also named Best Folk Group for the second time at the 2021 ceremony, where they hold the record as most awarded artist.
Their previous album The Hare’s Lament (2019) received huge critical acclaim, and the band have played sold out headline shows across Europe, toured with Lisa Hannigan, Roy Harper and Villagers and made numerous TV appearances.
