Forged in Scotland and Ireland's traditional music scene, but drawing on the music of the Balkans and North America, Dallahan take their listeners on a journey. Traversing styles and countries of the world in a dazzling live show, they create their own unique brand of World-Folk delivered with stunning virtuosity.
The lineup consists of Jack Badcock on guitar and vocals, Ciaran Ryan on banjo, mandolin and fiddle, Andrew Waite on accordion and Benedict Morris on fiddle and they have appeared at some of the world's most prestigious international folk music events such as Milwaukee Irish Fest (USA), Celtic Connections (SCO), Tonder Festival (DK), Festival Dranouter (BE), Woodford Folk Festival (AUS) among countless others. To date, they have brought their live show to 25 countries, earned three nominations for Folk Band of The Year in 2016, 2019, 2022 and 2023 and enjoyed collaborations such as with the Royal Scottish National Orchestra, songwriting legend Dougie MacLean and Nepal's folk exponents Kutumba.
Approaching a decade together as a band, Dallahan have become a veteran touring outfit and with each album they continue to evolve their sound - which they call their own brand of World-Folk - as is evident on their fourth studio album, Speak of the Devil.
