Beoga are a
five-piece traditional band based in County Antrim. Their
unique sound features the twin dueling accordions of Seán Óg
Graham and Damian McKee, along with four time All-Ireland
bodhrán champion Eamon Murray and pianist Liam Bradley. With
the addition of one of Ireland’s premier young singers,
Niamh Dunne, Mischief looks set to confirm Beoga’s
reputation as one of the most exciting acts to emerge from
Ireland in recent years. The bedrock of Beoga’s music lies
firmly within the Irish tradition, but they are not afraid
to incorporate other genres’ nuances into their music. From
bluesy riffs to Astor Piazzola-style jazz, to a raunchy New
Orleans jamboree vibe, their music always returns to a
wonderfully bouncy traditional sound. With a repertoire of
fresh self-penned tunes and inventive arrangements, Mischief
has already earned a 9.5/10 rating in Hotpress and has been
tipped by Irish Music Magazine as a contender for album of
the year. Beoga’s popularity continues to flourish, as they
captivate audiences on a global scale with their blend of
passion, energy and vitality. |
