2 LP The Gloaming is a contemporary Irish music group made up of master musicians Martin Hayes, Dennis Cahill, Iarla O Lionaird, Caoimhin O Raghallaigh and Thomas Bartlett. This band of trailblazers take contemporary Irish music into hitherto unchartered waters, enhancing the traditional rich, melancholic tones with modern hues of jazz, contemporary classical, chamber, post rock and experimental music. Live at the NCH is released to co-incide with seven sold-out shows at Dublin’s National Concert Hall, The Gloaming’s only live appearances of 2018. This extraordinary group’s concert delivery consistently raises the roof and leaves audiences breathless.
