Fionnlagh Mac a’ Phiocair and Sarah Hanniffy explore the Gaelic traditions of Scotland and Ireland in what has been described as “a genuine, fresh voice”. Known for their “hauntingly beautiful” sound, which is formed by the unique combination of Scottish Smallpipes, viola and Gàidhlig / Gaeilge song. The duo paint euphonic, yet vibrant soundscapes that washes over audiences.
Their recently released debut album explores both players’ cultural backgrounds; Fionnlagh is a native Gàidhlig speaker from the Isle of North Uist, and Sarah is from County Galway.
