John Davidson, Shane Booth & Ros O'Meara bring together dynamic and contrasting instrumentation and voices. The group have an expansive acoustic soundscape blending guitars, fiddle, bouzouki, percussion and three part harmony arrangements (that often sounds like more) to create a folk styling that incorporates elements of music from the plains of Ireland to the mountains of Scotland and much farther a field both east and west. Soaring melody lines, dirgy, intense a capella vocals and complex rhythmic structures will have the blood pumping through even the coldest of auditoriums. The cua live experience has been compared to contemporaries such as Lau and Lankum as well as to such greats as Planxty and Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young, to name a few.
Described as folk, world, roots, psychedelic-folk, heartfelt, transcendent, americana or trad the band ticks all of these boxes and more while maintaining a powerful through-line.
In the last few years cua have played countless shows in Ireland, toured to Holland and France and completed seven UK tours all to critical acclaim. Adding to this two sold out shows at Celtic Connections and a sold out show at Temple Bar Tradfest.
