Sounds Like: Nábac is a young Irish band which has emerged from the vibrant Galway music scene which has become so international of late. The selection of music on their debut CD “Siar Anoir (West of East)” reflects this. There are tracks stemming from the musical traditions of Denmark, Spain, Hungary and even further afield as well as from the dominant Irish tradition. There is a wonderful specific “Nábac” sound to the original material and great variety in the choice of song. Their new CD, produced by Seamie O..Dowd, “Siar Anoir” certainly adds something distinctly new to the traditional Irish music scene.Nábac formed just over two years ago and are making themselves known for their down to earth, lively performances. The band are quickly being snapped up by the International Irish Music festival scene, having performed in Germany, Israel, Italy, Denmark, Sweden, France and will later this year take part in the Irish Summer tour in Austria. Being a well recognised act in many of Ireland 's great folk venues, the band is swiftly creating ripples in the musical scene with a sound that is intricate, varied, and soulful while staying true to the Irish traditional sound.
