The Band ¦ An Banna

Seo Linn are a collective of four musicians who love to mesh contemporary folk music with the tradition of Ireland.

Seo Linn are (L to R):
Stiofán Ó Fearail: vocals, guitars.
Keith Ó Briain: vocals, bass, mandolin.
Kev Shortall: vocals, accordion, percussion.
Daithí Ó Ruaidh: vocals, keys, sax.

Touring musicians include:
Ben Wanders: drums, vocals
Louis Younge: keys, sax, whistles and vocals

Their journey began in the wilds of west Galway where the four friends lived and worked for many years. Conamara has influenced the way the look at music and language and it is evident throughout their work.

In 2013, Seo Linn began gigging and touring around Ireland. After garnering a solid following from a string of viral online videos, Seo Linn spent the next few years taking on various projects from writing and recording songs and videos for Self Help Africa to the Euro 2016 campaign culminating in performances in huge scale shows in Croke Park, the Aviva, the 3 Arena and the Bord Gáis Energy Theatre. They released their debut album ‘Solas’ on the back of all this work in 2017 which went on to win ‘Album of the Year’ at the ‘Nós Music Awards’.

The international touring scene beckoned for Seo Linn after continued domestic success. Headlining festivals in Italy, Australia and across the U.S., Seo Linn began to rapidly widen their fanbase. Their reputation as a quality headlining act preceded them as they consistently stunned their audiences from festival to festival. This period resulted in the release of Seo Linn’s second body of work; an E.P. entitled Marcas sa gCoill/Marcus in the Wood containing fan favourites ‘Buy Me Time’ and ‘Soilsiú an Lae’.

2020 saw Seo Linn’s tour of Australia cut short due to the pandemic crisis. All was not lost however as the focus shifted to upskilling, home studios and remote creativity. Online shows and livestreams opened up a whole new audience and was reinvigorating for the band. In 2021 work began on their next album, Anuas - a collection of old traditional Irish songs that have been reworked in Seo Linn’s style. Their single ‘Siúil a Rún’ was released shortly after that to wide aclaim, with the full album release and subsequent tour kicking off in February 2023. Their current single is their rousing and energetic take on the Conamara classic, ‘Cailleach an Airgid’

Seo Linn are just back from their 2024 tour of Australia with four sell-out shows in Victoria. They are currently working on original music for their third album while getting ready for their summer tour of the USA and France.
