We adore Priddy Folk Festival. It’s perfect. 🥰

This year’s Festival closers will be Dallahan !

Forged out of the traditional music scenes of Scotland and Ireland—yet influenced by the sounds of the Balkans, North America, and far beyond—Dallahan have spent over a decade guiding audiences through a musical world tour of their own making. Their dazzling live show, marked by restless creativity and stunning virtuosity, has come to be defined by its refusal to sit still. Guitarist and singer Jack Badcock, banjo player Ciaran Ryan, accordionist Andrew Waite, and fiddler Benedict Morris form the band that has evolved continuously while somehow remaining rooted in the traditions that first brought them together.
 
In their first year, the band received the Emerging Excellence Award from Help Musicians UK, while their debut was shortlisted for Album of the Year at the Scots Trad Music Awards. Their 2016 follow-up, Matter Of Time, took them even further afield: 103 performances across the globe that year alone, including a trip to Nepal for the British/Nepalese bicentenary celebrations on behalf of the British Council.
 
Now, with well over a decade together, Dallahan stand as a veteran touring outfit whose sound has matured without ever losing its exploratory spark. Their worldwide cult following—built slowly, show by show, across several continents—reflects a band that has grown into its own identity while continually pushing its boundaries. Their latest studio album, Speak of the Devil (June 2023), captures this ongoing evolution: seasoned, adventurous, and unmistakably Dallahan.

So if you want to see them and all the other great acts at our 2026 Priddy Folk Festival, you’ll need to grab your weekend (10-12 July) ticket fast!
