With an adventurous spirit and a passion for charting the road less travelled, Beoga have shown that Irish traditional music can take fresh new directions. That world-facing potential was proven by the popularity of their collaborations ‘Galway Girl’ and ‘Nancy Mulligan’ with Ed Sheeran on his all-conquering ‘÷’ album. ‘Galway Girl’ has been streamed over 1.4 billion times on Spotify alone.
After a 4-year break from touring and releasing music, Beoga are excited to return to a vibrant Irish music scene that is bursting with talent and creativity. Their latest offering ‘Anne Bonny’ is a new song written in the traditional style with echoes of the past deftly combined with Beoga’s signature contemporary flavour. The track previews their new album ‘Phases’ which follows on June 6th. It sees the band revisit their traditional roots and original, classic sound scape, whilst continuing to explore new ground in production and instrumentation.
