Bio:
Born into a musical family, siblings Séamus & Caoimhe Uí Fhlatharta hail from the village of An Áird Mhóir in the Gaeltacht region of Connemara, County Galway. They are noted for their sean nós singing (unaccompanied traditional Irish vocal performance in the Irish language) and their unique arrangements of both Irish and English language songs.
They take a particular interest in vocal arrangement and harmonization with their performances benefitting from the vocal tones that only families share. Séamus and Caoimhe are both accomplished multi instrumentalists, Irish dancers and All Ireland winning performers who keep the Irish language and their heritage at the heart of all their musical endeavours.
Their 2023 debut EP titled Séamus & Caoimhe.is available to download on all digital platforms and was produced by Brian Whelan and Riverdance composer Bill Whelan and recorded at their studio at The Fort, Roundstone, Connemara.
Caoimhe holds a BA in Irish Music from the Irish World Academy at the University of Limerick (UL). Séamus holds a BA in Applied Languages which includes Irish, also from UL.
