Tá Frankie Gavin ag seinm an fhidil agus na feadóige ó bhí sé ina dhéagóir, agus ina dhiaidh sin fuair sé é féin ag seinm taobh leis na Rolling Stones agus Elvis Costello, chomh maith le ceathrar Uachtarán SAM – Kennedy, Clinton, Bush agus Obama.

Frankie Gavin has played the fiddle and flute since his teenage years, with him later finding himself playing alongside The Rolling Stones and Elvis Costello, as well as for four US Presidents – Kennedy, Clinton, Bush and Obama.

Tá a ainm comhchiallach, áfach, le De Dannan, an banna ceoil a bhfuil cáil dhomhanda air a bhunaigh sé le Alec Finn i lár na 1970idí. Tugann sé aird mhór ar an ton agus ar an éagsúlacht, agus leanann an ceoltóir thar a bheith neamh-chomhréiteach seo ó Chontae na Gaillimhe lena shlí bheatha lonrach leis an gcéad ghlúin eile de cheoltóirí traidisiúnta.

His name however is synonymous with De Dannan, the globally celebrated band he founded with Alec Finn in the mid-1970s. He gives meticulous attention to tone and variation, with this superbly uncompromising musician from County Galway continuing his glittering career with the next generation of traditional musicians.

I gcuideachta Frankie tá Catherine McHugh, ar a dtugtar tionlacaí pianó is fearr in Éirinn, a bhí le feiceáil ar albam Frankie, Port Éireann, in 2022. Ag comhlánú an triúir tá an fliúiteadóir Conor McDonagh a bhfuil a stíl seinm fréamhaithe go domhain i dtraidisiún Dheisceart Shligigh agus a stíl éagsúil féin ag léiriú ag an am céanna.

Joining Frankie is Catherine McHugh, widely regarded as Ireland’s foremost piano accompanist who was featured on Frankie’s 2022 album Port Éireann. Completing the trio is flute player Conor McDonagh with his playing style deeply rooted in the South Sligo tradition while reflecting his own variational flair.
