Biografie

The German-Austrian formation CURRACH chose their name in honour of the Irish fishing boat of old Celtic origin. The four band members are deeply dedicated to the traditional music of Ireland and Scotland - emotional songs and lively, infectious dance tunes, which they perform with modern influences from folk, country and rock, and with great warmth and passion. In 2006, CURRACH released 'Farewell to Old Ireland'. What makes this album stand out among others is its varied song repertoire, its rich, three-dimensional sound and its highly dynamic arrangements. The interaction of voices as well as the unison of tin whistle, blues harp, uilleann pipes and fiddle build a distinctive foundation for the music.


'... arranged and interpreted with the heart. That's the way to present folk music!!' (H. D. in Musiker Magazin).

'... CURRACH, one of Germany's great Celtic folk bands ...' (Willi Rodrian, in Radio Lora, Munich).


_______________________________________


Die deutsch-österreichische Band Currach führt ihren Namen auf das irische Fischerboot alten keltischen Ursprungs zurück. Ihre vier Mitglieder haben sich der traditionellen Musik Irlands und Schottlands verschrieben - gefühlvollen Songs und mitreißenden Tanzmelodien, die sie mit modernen Einflüssen aus Folk, Country und Rock und viel Leidenschaft zum Besten geben. Das Ende 2006 erschienene Album "Farewell to Old Ireland" zeichnet sich vor allem durch sein vielseitiges Songrepertoire, seinen vollen, dreidimensionalen Sound und seine kreativen Arrangements aus. Das Zusammenspiel der verschiedenen Stimmen, aber auch die Harmonie von Tin Whistle und Bluesharp sowie Uilleann Pipes und Fiddle bilden die unverwechselbare Basis der Musik.


"...mit dem Herzen arrangiert und interpretiert. Nur so bringt man Folkmusik 'rüber!!” (H. D., Musiker Magazin).


“...CURRACH, eine der großen Celtic Folkbands aus Deutschland...” (Willi Rodrian, Radio LORA München).
