FIA RUA, the Galway folk-rock singer-songwriter launches his new album The Sky Went Low And The Sea Went High with a Galway Fringe Festival concert.
Fia Rua (aka Eoghan Burke ) plays Áras na nGael this Saturday at 9pm with special guest New Pope. The Sky Went Low... is Fia Rua’s third album and deals with issues of male identity, global warming, the artist’s adopted city of Galway, humour and darkness, and life and death. The album was recorded in Galway with local producer/artist Willow Sea.
Fia Rua’s music has enjoyed acclaim with Hotpress’ Olaf Tyaranson calling him “folking brilliant” and Motion Magazine in Britain describing his music as “hauntingly beautiful” and “powerful, spell-binding”.
