MULU’S TRIO
Young lineup built around one of the great up-and-coming talents of the new music scene emerging in Northern Ireland-Miadhachlughain O’Donnell, already Ireland’s youth champion on the transverse flute at age 15, is heir to the great tradition from the McSherry family. Her mother Tiona, uncles Paul and John, and aunt Joanne were the most innovative band of the 1990s, Tamalin.

After being part of various ensembles, she founded her own trio, which includes Tommy Moynagh and Ciara Maguire , is part of the eleven-woman group called Huartan, and as of 2024 is a new member of the great Afro Celts Sound System.
TO LOO LOOSE
Founded in Trieste in 1995 by a group of friends united by a passion for Celtic music intertwined with the groove of blues and rock, ToLooLoose are much more than a band: they are a living project, a 30-year-long musical journey made up of stages, streets, stories and emotions shared with an ever-participating and passionate audience. Starting in the clubs of their city, the ToLooLoose project was born with the aim of reinterpreting the music of the Celtic tradition in a modern key. Over the years they have built an overwhelming and unmistakable sound, made of rhythms all to dance to, songs that combine history, irony and intensity, and an infectious desire to party every time they take the stage. In 2025 they are celebrating 30 years in the business, and they have decided to do it the way only they know how: with a series of celebratory concerts that will retrace their musical history, including historic songs, new surprises, and a great desire to share.
