Oisín Mac Diarmada, Daithí Gormley and Samantha Harvey
Fiddle maestro Oisín Mac Diarmada is the founding leader of the acclaimed group Téada, which also includes his wife Samantha on keyboards and percussive dance. Button accordionist Daithí has issued a marvelous recording called Fiddling Without a Bow and collaborated with Oisín to author a book of classic County Sligo fiddle tunes. As a trio, the group released, Lane to the Glen, a disc that has inspired comparison to the legendary fiddle/accordion/piano recordings of Andy McGann, Joe Burke and Felix Dolan.
