DESCRIPTION:Irish band that cuts to the bone\n\nA shared love for the Irish
	 folk repertoire brought the members of Madra Salach\ntogether\, initially
	 leading to spontaneous pub sessions. Inspired by the\nemerging experiment
	al folk scene in Ireland\, the group expanded to include new\nmembers\, ad
	ditional instruments\, and electronic elements. This evolution gave\nrise 
	to original compositions that feel both strikingly modern and timeless\; a
	\nsound rooted in a tradition spanning the entire last century.\n\nWhile t
	he band members collaborate on the music\, the lyrics are penned by singer
	\nPaul Banks\, whose vocals possess a haunting\, visceral quality. His per
	formance\nstyle has been a key factor in the band’s rise as a festival fav
	orite over the\npast year\; they left the audience at Groningen’s Nieuwe K
	erk\, during ESNS\nFestival\, in a state of ecstasy\, and at the Best Kept
	 Secret festival\, they\nmanaged to draw a large crowd to their performanc
	e early in the day.\n\nTheir debut EP\, 'It’s a Hell of an Age' (released 
	January 26)\, blended original\ntracks with fresh interpretations of tradi
	tional material\, reaching number three\non the Irish charts and landing i
	n the UK’s 'Independent Albums Top 10.' On\nJanuary 15\, they will release
	 their debut album\, 'Gorta'\, named after the Irish\nword for "hunger." I
	t is an exploration of heritage: what we carry forward from\nthe generatio
	ns before us\, what we leave behind\, and the many forms that hunger\ncan 
	take. Although the album is rooted in traditional Irish music\, it venture
	s\ninto darker\, more experimental\, and contemporary territory.
