About this event

Síle Denvir is a sean-nós singer and harpist deeply influenced by her home, the Connemara Gaeltacht in Ireland. Her singing, deeply rooted in the ancient style of sean-nós, carries a global appeal through her ethereal performances.

She has collaborated with renowned Irish musicians and is a founding member of the group Líadan. As an academic at Dublin City University, she has extensively researched and published works on Irish song tradition, adding further depth to her performances. Síle’s latest album, “Anamnesis,” recorded with producer John Reynolds and cellist Caroline Dale, was released in 2023. Recently, she was honoured with the title of “Amhránaí na Bliana” (singer of the year) at the prestigious TG4 Gradam Ceoil awards.
