The Gloaming is a collective of remarkable individual talents who share a musical aesthetic. The five came together to explore new music in Ireland in early 2011 and, combining their skills and genres, they made music that is both traditional and new. Pianist Thomas Bartlett, sean-nós singer Iarla Ó Lionaird, guitarist Dennis Cahill, fiddler and hardanger innovator Caoimhín Ó Raghallaigh and fiddle master Martin Hayes are all virtuoso individual musicians who, as an ensemble, form a unique band with a sound all of its own.
