The Haar
A nostalgic, underground celtic artist.
New on the scene, this exciting Anglo/Irish band is already being compared to the sensational Lankum. The Haar features four captivating musicians, each at the pinnacle of their respective fields, whose spontaneity thrives on the trust they put in each other to create a unique and “splendid balance of swirling instrumental magic and beautifully sung narratives” (Folk Radio UK). Adam Summerhayes (fiddle), Cormac Byrne (bodhrán) and Murray Grainger (accordion) are acclaimed, high-level improvisers, adept at producing ever-changing, flowing soundscapes, while new-comer, Molly Donnery, lets her inimitable and infectious voice flow, with fragility and power in equal measure – naturally adapting to the contours of the music created in the moment. As the band themselves say about their songs: “We let our imaginations run free with these old favourites” and the result is breathtaking, ambitious and visceral.
