With his formidable technique and superb improvisational flair, uilleann piper and whistle player John McSherry has been hailed as “a true master” by Irish Music Magazine. His multi-talented quartet is completed by the brilliant fiddler/pianist Dónal O’Connor (son of Gerry O’Connor and Eithne Ni Uallachain), Francis McIlduff (bodhran, uilleann pipes and low whistles) and Tony Byrne on guitar.
Killarney-born fiddler and concertina player Niamh Ni Charra – currently a member of Carlos Núñez’s band – was a Riverdance soloist for eight years before releasing her debut album On Da Thaobh/From Both Sides to ecstatic reviews in 2007. “A musician at home with music of any hue.” (Irish Times)
