Moxie

When five young Irish musicians hibernate for two weeks to explore their music by the ever changing sky and the rhythmic movements and sounds of Ireland's west coast Atlantic sea you get Moxie, a group who are inspiring audiences with their new palette of 21st century Irish music.

Their music has a solid traditional backbone. Jazz, rock, bluegrass and world music rhythms and harmonies are creatively structured around this base treating the listener to layers of rich and intricate sounds as the band deliver a punchy programme of both their own compositions and old tunes with a new emerald vibe.

Hailing from Northern Ireland and quickly developing a name for herself in the Scottish music scene, Dara Dubh is a multifaceted musician who weaves catchy lyricism through her experimental harp style to create a new sound in popular music.
