The Moy Sessions presents Billow Wood in concert.
BILLOW WOOD: A small, intimate gig for a hometown audience, this Billow Wood experience is like none before. Their original music is making waves around Europe folk festivals. Their fresh sound integrates Irish instrumentation (harp, tin-whistle, accordion, fiddle) and mainstream sounds (guitar, bass and percussion) with mainstream pop/folk vocals and harmonies. The high energy, rhythmical chorus, punches and melodic tones to Billow Woods music is sure to set the band on the precipice of many new fans!
Laoise Kelly from Westport, Co. Mayo, now living on Achill Island, is regarded as the most significant harper of her generation.
