Ireland in Music

Produced by TradFest in 2020, just in the grip of the pandemic, Ireland in Music was a TV project designed to keep the flag flying while gatherings were impossible. This showcase of contemporary Irish talent, shot in stunning natural locations, found eager audiences both at home and internationally. Originally broadcast on RTE 1, it was picked up by several TV stations and festivals in the US. Following an incredibly successful 2nd series distributed through the US’ largest PBS network, RTÉ and all over the world, a highly anticipated 3rd series has already been green-lit.
