A modern Irish folk band with an old-school approach, the six-piece ensemble has drawn praise for their gritty, high-octane Irish tunes and occasional detours into the dark, somber melodies of the Irish song tradition. They were described as “gloriously three-dimensional” by the Irish Times.
Skjpper’s Alley came to prominence in the summer of 2103 after winning the Loic Raison Trophy at Brittany’s Festival Interceltique de Lorient, an award previously won by well-known groups including Danú, Clannad and the Bothy Band.
