Martin Hayes is one of the world's most celebrated fiddle players and an influential figure in Irish traditional music. He has created an ensemble with its roots in traditional Irish music – the common ground of their name but possess a wealth of talent spanning trad Irish music, improvisation, arrangement, jazz, avant-garde and cutting edge contemporary classical. “Even though there'll be plenty of space for people to develop their own parts, the larger picture will be driven by my vision for the music. We'll be seeing what the tune wants to say and seeing how the band can support that. With years of performing I have a sense of what brings me the deepest joy and what gets to the heart of the music” says Hayes.
