Happy to finally share this video we put together for a beautiful Piece of Music from NavΓ‘
We had a wonderful time shooting this!
Kick back, Relax and feel the wonderful energy of NavΓ‘
NavΓ‘ is a group of young musicians exploring the relationship between the ancient musical cultures of Ireland and Persia. It is comprised of members of folk/bluegrass band Pine Marten: Paddy Kiernan and Niall Hughes, and Iranian born brothers Shahab and Shayan Coohe. Together these diverse musicians weave a beguiling tapestry of sound, ranging from Irish jigs and reels to Persian 'dastgΓ‘h', to original compositions and explosive improvisations.
Since forming in early 2016 they have performed at The Silk Road Film Festival, Bray Jazz Festival, as part of the 'Listen At' concert series, and have received national airplay on RTΓ lyric fm's 'The Blue of the Night' radio show. They are also recent recipients of the Arts Council Ireland 'Deis Recording Grant'
