Hi all, we’re very excited to continue touring our new “Cas” cd with a summer of touring Ireland and Europe. Starting in June with Doolin Folk Festival and Duncairn Centre in Belfast, we visit Ireland, France, Switzerland, Spain, Denmark and Belgium. 

Added to that, we’re very excited to announce that the amazing Natalie Merchant will be joining us in Ireland for special gigs in Dublin and Cork city, and our long-time original member Sean Smyth will be back in the fiddle seat! 

“Cas” still available on our website at www.lunasa.ie/shop/

"superbly executed and gives the band’s new album an entirely new creative dimension. The result of this change in direction is truly one of the band’s finest albums…. Lúnasa is in excellent form here, firing on all cylinders throughout"  Irish Echo

Other big news is that we've been invited once again on Joanie Madden's incredible "Folk'n'Irish Cruise" Next year's cruise leaves from NY city on May 12 and if the last 2 are anything to go by, this will be a truly amazing trip. Fantastic concerts, sessions, dancing, great food and drinks and of course plenty of time to enjoy the sun and island beaches, it's a trip every Irish music fan should try at least once. Make sure to tell Joanie Madden you're going because of us as it ensures we get back and it's fast becoming our favourite week fo the year! All details at www.joaniemaddencruise.com
