Legendary Irish accordion player and singer Seamus Begley and guitar virtuoso Jim Murray are about to embark on a nationwide tour with their new album. Ếirí Go Lá (Up Until Dawn) is the duo’s long-awaited follow up to their acclaimed debut album Ragairne which won both Hot Press Magazine and Irish Times “Traditional Irish Album of the Year”.
Ếirí Go Lá is a rousing celebration of tune and song and features material sourced mainly from the pair’s native counties of Cork and Kerry - much of which has never been previously recorded. Begley combines energetic box playing with stunning vocals while a self penned title from Murray, who also produced the album completes this captivating and diverse collection.
To coincide with the release of the album, the duo are embarking on a nationwide tour before traveling to Australia and New Zealand in the Spring.
