Influences
The very active and vibrant traditional Irish music scene - Lóchrann also place a strong emphasis on their love of the Irish language and, of course Irish Dancing
Lóchrann is the name of a group of traditional Irish musicians chosen annually from the student body at Mary Immaculate College in Limerick, Ireland. The name ”Lóchrann”, (meaning, torch, flame or lamp in the Irish language), is taken from the College motto “Briathar Dé mo Lóchrann” (“The Word of God, a lamp for my steps”, Ps. 118). As a group of the most talented traditional musicians in Ireland, Lóchrann is dedicated to keeping the flame of traditional music burning brightly.
Is é an brí atá ag an bhfocal Lóchrann i nGaeilge ná tóirse, lasair, solas nó rabhchán. Is ó mhana an choláiste a thagann sé, 'Briathar Dé, lóchrann do mo chosa'.
Is amach as mic léinn Choláiste Mhuire gan Smál a thagann ballraíocht Lóchrann 2008 - is grúpa fíor-oilte sa cheol an grúpa seo, le duaiseanna buaite acu araon ag Fleadh Cheoil na hEireann, ag Oireachtas na Gaeilge agus ag Oireachtas Rince na Cruinne.
