Martin Hayes is one of the world’s most revered fiddlers and an influential figure in Irish traditional music. Founder of the seminal Irish American supergroup The Gloaming, Hayes is a virtuoso interpreter of Irish traditional melodies.
Recognised for his exquisite musicality and irresistible rhythm, Hayes plays the Auckland Town Hall by special engagement in the lead up to Saint Patrick’s Day. He’ll be joined by fellow The Tulla Ceìiliì Band alumnus Brian Donnellan (bouzouki, harmonium and concertina) and Conal O’Kane (guitar) to perform tracks from Hayes’ Common Ground Ensemble album, Peggy’s Dream, as well as tunes from his own repertoire.
