THE GLOAMING dwells at a musical crossroads, enhancing traditional Irish music's rich, melancholic tones with modern hues of jazz, contemporary classical, and experimental music.
Steeped in traditional Irish music since birth, fiddlers Martin Hayes and Caoimhin Ó Raghallaigh and sean-nós singer Iarla Ó Lionáird are joined by New York pianist Thomas Bartlett (Doveman), and Chicago-born guitarist Dennis Cahill. The Gloaming have found a way to fuse and transform Irish traditions, in the process redefining what Irish music can be. The new album was recorded in December 2015 at Real World Studios, produced by Thomas Bartlett (Sufjan Stevens, Glen Hansard) and engineered and mixed by Patrick Dillett (David Byrne & St.Vincent, The National).
