Milun - Live in Hebden Bridge

4th December 2009

Trades Club, Hebden Bridge

- MILUN -

Milun bring you the fresh, new sounds of Indo-Irish music featuring Surmeet Singh (sitar), Chris 'O Malley (accordion & guitar), Sam Proctor (fiddle & bodhran) and Upneet Singh (tabla).

Together the four musicians celebrate the common themes and unique aspects of the classical and folk traditions of India and Ireland.

Through a deep musical conversation they have captured the haunting sounds of the Indian Alaap to the pounding energy of Irish reels on the sitar, Bodrán, tabla, fiddle and accordion. By combining the notes found in the standard minor scale in Irish music with well-known ragas in Indian music, they exchange traditional motifs in a 'question and answer' to create a new music expression that is reflective 21st Century Britain.

Enjoyed every bit of their music today live at Symphony Hall Birmingham. Nice blend of Indian and Irish music. Easy and flowing...

[SusannaBearfoot]

just seen these guys in Birmingham and they really know how to blend together. Not sure this vidi shows it all that well, but today they were a brilliant fusion, or a coalition as they described it! I agree with Nick!
