Gráda
Gráda are still relatively new and young. Fast, high-energy and traditional, Gráda are considered among today’s most popular of Irish contemporary trad music bands, regularly selling out the leading venues in Ireland.
They are signed with Nashville based Compass Records (Lunása, Paul Brady, Dervish). Gráda have some serious globetrotting world tours behind them and planned, and their latest album The Landing Step has been released worldwide.
Alan Doherty has also brought much attention to Gráda for his role as lead flute soloist on the Lord of the Rings soundtrack. If you don’t see Gráda in Kansas City on Labor Day Weekend, you can always catch them somewhere in a country near you, or on water on that Carribean Cruise with 7 Nations
