Grada

Grada have received a raft of awards and reviews that have propelled them into the elite circle of Irish super groups. They have taken Irish traditional music forward to a new level, effortlessly blending contemporary music styles, modern songs and other forms of ethnic music into their own natural style. American record label, Compass, has seen the group’s CDs released worldwide, laying a platform for Grada’s steady path of touring, which saw them play in 12 countries in 2005 in venues as prestigious as the Sydney Opera House, Ireland’s National Concert Hall, and the main stage at Belgium’s Dranouter Festival.
