Leitrim County Council’s first Traditional Music Residency featuring the renowned traditional group Lúnasa came to a close in February 2009 with the launch of a CD recorded with 28 Leitrim musicians and members of Lúnasa. They handed over their position as Musicians in Residence to Dervish, who will work on a similar year and a half project. Dervish will be at Moniaive Folk Festival, Dumfries, Scotland on May 9th and the hugely enjoyable Wimborne Folk Festival in Dorset, England on the 14th of June.
