Luke Daniels Trio: Bellows to the Hearth Tour

The Luke Daniels Trio is a bold force on today’s folk scene which is lead by Luke Daniels, a former BBC Radio 2 Young Trad Award winner and global touring artist with Riverdance, Cara Dillon, De Dannan and Jethro Tull.  Luke is reimagining what folk music can be — from his debut composition "The Lost Music of the Gaels"  to prestigious festival performances including Glastonbury and the Philadelphia Folk Festival. 

With a blend of deep basslines, nimble riffs, the trio will get you dancing, delivering a sound that is both fiercely contemporary and rooted in trad inspired by the Boston dancehalls of the 1920s. The trio features Matt Tighe, a BBC Radio Scotland Young Trad finalist whose fiery fiddle playing blends Irish soul with world-class virtuosity; and Luc McNally, a rhythmic powerhouse and sensitive guitarist who is also a BBC Radio Scotland Young Trad finalist.  

The Luke Daniels Trio fuses English, Irish, and Scottish traditional tunes with global influences to create something vibrant, vital, and utterly unique.
