Hailing from historic County Waterford, leading traditional Irish ensemble Danú takes its audiences on a high-energy musical journey to their native Ireland through a glorious mix of ancient Irish music and new repertoire.
For more than two decades, Danú’s virtuosi players on flute, tin whistle, fiddle, button accordion, bouzouki, and vocals (Irish and English), have performed around the globe and recorded seven critically acclaimed albums.
Winners of numerous awards from the BBC and Irish Music Magazine, Danú has toured throughout Europe, the Middle East, and North America with stops at The Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles, Symphony Space in New York City, and major concert engagements in the United Kingdom, India, Israel, and across Europe. Danú’s popular recordings are available on the Shanachie label and live performances are often broadcast on NPR, the CBC, and the BBC. Their live DVD, One Night Stand, was filmed at Vicar St. Dublin.
