Grada
......have taken Irish
traditional music forward to a new level, effortlessly blending
contemporary music styles, modern songs and other forms of ethnic music
into their own natural style. Noteworthy guest musicians, such as Vyvienne
Long (cellist with Damien Rice) and percussionist Dave Hingerty (Josh
Ritter / The Frames) have further added to Gráda’s sound and reputation.
American record label, Compass, has seen the group’s CDs released
worldwide, laying a platform for Gráda’s steady path of touring, which saw
them play 120 concerts in 12 countries last year in venues as prestigious
as the Sydney Opera House, Ireland’s National Concert Hall,
and the main stage at Belgium’s Dranouter Festival where 12,000
people came to see their concert.
