Maria Somerville & Ciarán Wood

Galway, 05.06.19

With Maria Somerville

“…and what really struck me as we went along was that the people themselves were the real connection.”

This mix presents a dialogue of migration informed by Wood’s artistic practice, back and forth between Maria and Ciarán. Exploring the connections of these areas through field recordings, sean-nós, traditional irish, celtic new age, blues exploring themes of the supernatural, emigration, love, loss …occasionally meandering south to Sardinia and the sounds of In Launeddas, a triple-pipe instrument with connections to Celtic migration patterns.

Directly referencing his own family’s upheaval in leaving Ireland and the connections that remain tied to the land they left behind, Ciarán Wood is an artist who lives and works in London.
