THREE OF the best trad fiddlers in the country - Cathal Hayden, Dezi Donnelly, and Tóla Custy - have joined forces to become Blazing Bows.
Blazing Bows, with a line up completed by guitarist Ed Boyd and John Joe Kelly on bodhrán, are coming to the Town Hall Theatre to perform a concert this Sunday at 8pm.
These five virtuosic musicians have individually played with Four Men and a Dog, the Sharon Shannon Band, the Mike McGoldrick band, Transatlantic Sessions, Calico, Flook, and in Kate Rusby’s band.
Blazing Bows will be joined onstage by music students from Club Ceoil, an Tulach, Scoil Chomcille an Tulach. Tóla Custy visited students last week to deliver a music workshop and was so impressed he asked them to join the band for the show.
Tickets are available from the Town Hall on 091 - 569777 and www.tht.ie
