Tradition Now takes a unique look at progressive traditional music in a fast-moving Ireland, providing a platform for the most forward-thinking artists playing today.

A special double-bill that sees protest song, traditional music and jazz collide. Genre-bending multi-instrumentalist and vocalist Sam Amidon presents a highly unpredictable programme of his own music with a cast of improvising musicians. We are delighted to welcome guitarist Marc Ribot to the ensemble for this performance. Ribot recently released Songs of Resistance. He set out to assemble a set of songs that spoke to this political moment with appropriate ambition, passion, and fury.

Niall Vallely unveils his new project with NYC power jazz combo, Harriet Tubman.

Presented by NCH in partnership with the Arts Council.
