Fiárock — Album Launch

BWMF26 proudly presents Fiárock, one of the most exciting new voices in Irish traditional music, launching their debut album An Tús with a special festival afternoon show.

Rooted in tradition and bursting with contemporary energy, Fiárock blend driving Irish trad with jazz harmony, American old-time and folk influences. Expect exhilarating polkas, hypnotic slow airs and fearless musicianship — music that grabs you instantly and stays with you.
Formed in 2021 and inspired by airneánach — the tradition of late-night music and storytelling — Fiárock have quickly built a reputation for electrifying live performances, from Dublin’s Cobblestone to RTÉ Raidió na Gaeltachta, Fleadh TV and international Celtic festivals.

Fiárock are:
Clíona Halley (concertina) · Nicolle Fig (bodhrán & vocals) · Evan Powell (piano) · Darragh Carey-Kennedy (banjo)

With An Tús arriving in early 2026, this is a rare chance to catch a breakout band at an intimate festival show.
