“Think of Dervish and think of fire.”—RootsWorld

Dervish has been bringing traditional Irish music to the world for more than 25 years. The musicians have established themselves as one of the most celebrated bands in Irish music internationally with live performances that match charm and creativity with striking interpretations of traditional songs. All six members of the band are steeped in the musical folkways of counties Sligo and Leitrim in northwest Ireland. This area — where Atlantic coastline meets storied mountains and rural landscapes — has inspired the band’s passionate vocals and dazzling instrumental virtuosity.
