NoCrows folk orchestra group is set to perform its very first limited-edition vinyl album on January 26 at The Glens Centre.
Originally from Sligo, the dynamic world music group launched the LP on their 2023 Spain/Switzerland/Germany tour.
The LP's cover art is an image by Martha Quinn from the window of the group's "home venue", Shoot the Crows in Sligo. The vinyl album is a remastered-for-vinyl "Best Of" collection, plus bonus tracks and new compositions written during the lockdown of 2020/21.
NoCrows was formed in 2005 with members from Ireland, Siberia, Switzerland and Mallorca.
NoCrows is Anna Houston: Cello, Mandolin, Vocals; Eddie Lee, Bass, Vocals; Felip Carbonell, Guitar, Vocals; Oleg Ponomarev, Violin; Ray Coen, Guitar, Fiddle, Vocals; and Steve Wickham, Fiddle and Vocals.
The band's original material reflects the diverse individual members' musical backgrounds, spanning Irish traditional, rumba, classical, jazz, rock, and Balkan music, enthralling audiences at Glastonbury, Dranouter, Sitges Live, Sligo Live, and many European festivals.
In 2019, NoCrows was awarded Band of the Year at the renowned arts venue Zehntscheuer, Ravensburg, Germany. In 2022, the band debuted in France, performing at the Centre Culturel Irlandais in Paris.
After six CD releases, the latest being their 2021 release, "Escape", a live collection of their best-known tunes.
Tickets for the concert are €20/18 and available at https://glenscentre.ticketsolve.com/ticketbooth/shows/873653535.
