DAITHI GORMLEY
Fiddling Without A Bow

With Catherine McHugh (Piano) & Sorcha Costello (Fiddle: Track 11)

 

Daithí Gormley is widely regarded as one of the finest Button Accordion players of his generation. Steeped in the rich musical heritage of his native county Sligo his, remarkably accomplished, debut album ‘Fiddling without a Bow – Irish Traditional Music on Button Accordion’ brings an expressive mix of old and new tunes played with an attention to detail conduit to past masters of Irish traditional music.

"Daithi Gormley is a master musician.This fact becomes clearwhen you listen to his performance on this, his first recording.
His musical concepts and understanding of old and new tunes has the potential to influence positively how furute musicians will interpret and play traditional music.
It is a fantastic example of high standards and could well bring people to their senses. Well done Daithi "IT BATES BANAGHER", JOE BURKE

Press Reviews

“Fiddling Without A Bow” is a first class release. Gormley’s done a great thing here with his solo debut. His playing is exceptional, the tune selection first rate, and it’s all delivered a great pace with all the lift you could want. Surely, this is an accordion album any fan of trad music will want to have. - Daniel Neely 'The Irish Echo'

"Captivating and enthralling…a must have for all box players or indeed lovers of pure, solid traditional accordion music" - Edel McLaughlin 'Irish Music Magazine'
