Solas is hailed by The Boston Globe as “the finest Celtic ensemble this country has ever produced.” Since forming in New York City in 1995, they have been a galvanizing element in the Irish music scene—a lightning rod of talent and inspiration that set new standards for musicianship, repertoire, and intensity. Over the course of twelve critically acclaimed albums and endless international touring, Solas brought their love and respect for the traditions of Irish music, and their sense of melodic and instrumental adventure to the world. In 2017, after a remarkable two-decade career, Solas decided it was time for a break. Eight years later, the break is over, and Solas is back and ready to celebrate their 30th anniversary! The musical adventure continues in 2025. The ensemble features Seamus Egan on guitar, banjo and flute, Winifred Horan on fiddle, Nuala Kennedy on flute and vocals, John Williams on button accordion and Alan Murray on guitar and vocals.
