He has been on a journey into electronic music since the early 80’s when he discovered a Fairlight sequencer in a studio he was working in which was the spark / smoking gun that caused the formation of ‘Operating Theatre’. Soon came collaborations with a young Bono who was setting up Mother Records to help expose Irish Music and whom he actually gave piano lessons to and the rest they say is history. He began his Magnum Opus label in 1989 and has released a plethora of albums and collaborations to date and which throughout has also seen Roger working in Film and Tv, Theatre, Movies, Opera and beyond. His work has been critically acclaimed and has even been formally recognized by Irish president Michael D Higgins for his contributions to Irish music. Suffering from somewhat of a resurgence in popularity in recent years and being featured as the soundtrack to ‘Gucci’s’ new jewellery line, as well as now collaborating with young up and coming talent Lucy Mc Williams, there are no signs of slowing down any time soon.
Lucy Mcwilliams is a Dublin born artist. Her first single with Irish Spoken word artist Malaki has over 11 million streams to date and national radioplay. She was featured on Record of the Day official charts, The Irish Times and Hot Press amongst others and played the Great Escape in Dublin and Brighton. Her recent track “The Woman in me”, is a stripped back demo which Lucy penned, released unproduced just her on piano. Her stunning voice and impressive live shows have fans not only across Ireland but the UK also.
Lucy has played Electric Picnic, and Forest Fest. She Headlined a sold out gig in The Grand Social, she has supported INHALER at 3Olympia, and recently supported Tanita Tikaram November 2025 at the National Concert Hall, Dublin. Her recent release ‘ A Story in three Songs’ is released now on Youtube. Lucy is collaborating on an EP with composer Roger Doyle (Operating Theatre) dubbed the Irish Brian Eno.

Duke Special – (aka Belfast’s Peter Wilson) is a curious person. He is curious about music, theatre, books, poetry, art, love, life, redemption, death and 78RPM records. All of this is evidenced by the variety of musical adventures throughout his career. He has released 17 albums and EPs, toured all over the world and has been involved in a diverse array of other projects, including writing the music for Deborah Warner’s critically acclaimed 2009 production of Mother Courage and Her Children at London’s National Theatre and being commissioned by the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York to write a series of original songs based on photographs for their exhibition of the photographers Stieglitz, Steichen and Strand. Duke is currently working on what will be his seventh theatre piece, a musical adaptation of The Velveteen Rabbit for Replay Theatre Company, Belfast (2025).Performing live is still one of Duke Special’s main passions, and over the years he has played to captive audiences across the world. Whether he performs solo, as a duo, with a full band, a string quartet or an orchestra, a Duke Special show is always a unique experience. In 2023, to celebrate the release of his first EP 21 years ago, he embarked on a series of live shows – Adventures in Belfast, Adventures in Ireland and Adventures in the UK – showcasing songs from across his remarkable career, joined by long term collaborator and brother in arms, the tintinnabulator, Temperance Society Chip Bailey. His latest album, Blood for Ghosts was released on vinyl and as a book in November 2023.
Bróna Keogh is a soulful, indie folk singer from Dublin who draws inspiration from folklore, pop culture, r&b, neo-soul, americana, jazz, blues and the magic of the natural world.Bróna has been honing her stage craft with performances supporting some of Ireland’s most exciting new artists including Pillow Queens, Niamh Reagan, Dani Larkin, Cormac Looby, Caoi de Barra, Wyvern Lingo, and D. Cullen as well as international artists Nadia Reid and Gravedancer to name a few. She has released a number of singles and an ep to date with whispers of new music in the pipeline.

LEO O’KELLY
Co-creator of the prog-folk genre Leo O’Kelly of the legendary Tír na nÓg performs at TradFest this January + support from The Velvet TideLeo O’Kelly is an Irish singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist, and producer. He is the co-founder of the Irish folk duo Tír na nÓg (The land of eternal youth), one of the leading lights of the early 1970s folk scene who are considered one of the founding fathers of the Progressive Folk genre.In 1969, Leo, as a solo artist, started playing the folk clubs in Dublin. At the same time, Sonny Condell was treading a similar route in the very same city. Musicians were criss-crossing the city, playing their respective gigs as well as seeing their peers perform. Both Sonny and Leo were beginning to independently harbour desires to move to London as singer-songwriters. It was by chance that they found themselves chatting to each other and realising that they shared that same ambition. Tír na nÓg was born. Very soon, Tír na nÓg had a new demo tape in their hands and caught the ear of Chrysalis Records. Only two weeks had elapsed since leaving Ireland – and the next stage of Tír na nÓg’s odyssey was about to unfolld. Tír na nÓg immediately started playing the folk clubs in London where they built up a very strong following with their timeless songs, close harmonies and engaging, between-song, banter and not long after their departure The Royal Albert Hall with Jethro Tull as part of a British and European tour. Over the ensuing years, as well as headlining Tír na nÓg gigs (with some interesting support acts including Richard and Linda Thompson, Supertramp, and Jasper Carrott!), the pair found themselves gigging with some of their own heroes – Procul Harum, The Who, Cat Stevens, T. Rex, Roxy Music, Elton John, The Velvet Underground and Hawkwind, to mention a very few.A few months later Tír na nÓg released their first album – namely ‘Tír na nÓg ’. This was recorded at Livingstone Studios in Barnet and was produced by the legendary folk producer, Bill Leader. Melody Maker immediately recognised it as an album of great worth and made it ‘Album of the Month’. Many radio sessions with the late, wonderful, John Peel followed, along with Bob Harris and Kid Jensen shows – and even the great Alan Freeman was a self-proclaimed fan. After a strong debut and a sustained period of gigging, Leo and Sonny were ready to commit a new batch of songs to vinyl. The recording of these songs took place in Willesden at Morgan Studios.Eventually, the songs were all completed, with help from Larry Steele and Barry de Souza on additional instruments, and ‘A Tear and a Smile’ was released in 1972. This collection of ten songs enhanced their growing reputation and, as with the first album, they were individually written by Leo and Sonny but delivered in unison as Tír na nÓg.Their third album, ‘Strong in the Sun’, was released in late 1973 with Matthew Fisher (producing the album) providing keyboards and featured one of the earliest examples of sampling and the overall production displayed their evolving musicianship. Their headline live shows continued in the folk clubs and the colleges as well as supporting even more groups – The Who and Emerson, Lake & Palmer adding to their list. At the same time, John Peel continued to champion their cause with several sessions, with Leo and Sonny now showcasing songs from their third album. In 1972, before the ‘Strong in the Sun’ era, Bob Harris presented an ‘In Concert’ programme with Tir na nOg supporting Roxy Music at the Paris Theatre, Regent Street, London. This recording is featured on the 2001 CD, ‘Spotlight’ with songs from later Peel Sessions. ‘Los Angeles’, ‘Backwaterawhile’ and ‘Spotlight’, songs not recorded in a studio by Tír na nÓg, were part of this repertoire.After a punishing schedule of live appearances, together with an indifference shown by their record company, Chrysalis, the duo returned to Ireland and went their separate ways ….. for a few years at least however they have occasionally reformed over the years.Leo continued to perform, but now as a solo artist featuring special guests. During the same period, Sonny started his solo career, as well as forming a four-piece band, Scullion, with his friend Philip King. Solo albums (‘Camouflage’, ‘Someone to Dance With’, ‘French Windows’ and ‘Backwater Awhile’) and Scullion albums followed over the ensuing years all the way to the present time. Scullion are, at present, a three-piece band (Condell, King and Robbie Overson)Don’t miss your chance to catch Leo O’Kelly performing the music of Tír na nÓg as well as solo material this January at Walters venue Dún laoghaire for a very special matinee show as part of Tradfest 2026 + support from special guests/ alt-folkers The Velvet Tide.The Velvet Tide explore a spectrum of musical directions and genres, their sound is primarily characterized as indie-folk. The band distinguishes itself through a blend of traditional and modern instrumentation creating a distinctive and original sonic signature.They have released 4 singles to date: ‘Porcelain World’, ‘Just the Way It Goes’ and ‘Ghost in the Water’ followed by the 2024 release ‘Your Losing Hand”.

Legends, Ghosts and Ghouls of Dublin | Walking Tour
2026-07-10 18:00 - 20:00 | WB Yeats House, 81 Merrion Square Street, 2 Dublin, Dublin, 2, Ireland
Experience Dublin’s mysterious legends and myths on this 90 minute walking tour.

Legends, Ghosts, and Ghouls!

Ireland has a unique relationship with its legendary past. Kept alive in the histories of the Filí and the Seanchaidhe, Ireland’s gods were not destroyed but – in the words of Mark Williams – demoted to lesser beings. This is an important element of Ireland’s oral histories, which in turn have coloured its popular histories and left many legends for us to parse over today.
On the other side of Irish history we have the ballrooms, the salons, and the private studies of Dublin’s litterati. The seances and unwrapping parties, the mysteries and the macabre, all combining into the secret esoteric orders that strove to unlock the secrets of existence.
Come explore with us where these two elements fuse to create the wonderful world of Legends, Ghosts, and Ghouls that are just as much a part of Dublin’s history as any of its citizens and buildings…
Our tour has over 100 excellent reviews online and is ranked in the top tours on Trip Advisor.

The result is a fresh blend of freewheeling instrumentals, furious jigs, and primal rhythms that transcend the traditional boundaries of Irish music.
Kíla have worked extensively in TV and film. In 2020 they won the IFTA for Best Original Score for the soundtrack or Arracht (TG4).

Craig Moran is an Irish stand-up comedian known for his infectious energy and hilarious storytelling. Starting comedy at 27, he quickly made his mark and is now a regular at major comedy clubs across Ireland, sharing stages with some of the country’s top acts and performing for international audiences.
A natural storyteller, Craig’s style blends relatable anecdotes with animated act-outs that bring his stories to life on stage. Growing up as the middle child and the class clown, he’s always had a knack for being the centre of attention — a quality that translates perfectly to stand-up.
With his instantly likeable stage presence and high-energy delivery, Craig consistently leaves audiences in stitches.
