TRADFEST Season 3

Filmed at Ardgillan Castle in Fingal, Ireland, during the TradFest music festival, TRADFEST Season 3 takes viewers on an Irish musical journey through intimate performances and conversation with the musicians. The program is inspired by the festival motto: "Trad without Frontiers." Host Fiachna � Braon�in, guitarist and vocalist of Hothouse Flowers, breaks "musical bread" with guests, using traditional Irish music as a conversational starting point. From there, the discussions branch out to a wide range of topics, including folk, alt-folk, jazz and more – delighting purists and curious listeners alike. Episodes this season feature performances by special guests Eric Bibb, Eileen Ivers, Muireann Bradley, Wallis Bird, Brenda Castles, Kaia Kater and Aoife O’Donovan, among many others.
