Biographical NoteReturn to Top

Treasa O'Driscoll is a singer and reciter of Bardic lineage. Her extensive repertoire is drawn from her native Ireland's poetic and literary traditions.

Joe Heaney (AKA Joe Éinniú; Irish: Seosamh Ó hÉanaí) (1919 - 1984) was an Irish traditional (sean nós) singer from County Galway, Ireland. He spent most of his adult life abroad, living in England, Scotland and New York City, in the course of which he recorded hundreds of songs. A magnificent singer in both Gaelic and English, Heaney sings in sean-nos, the highly ornamented style of traditional Irish song.
