Grayshott Folk Club presents:
Réalta - on tour from Northern Ireland
Saturday 30/09/2017
7:30pm to 11:00pm
Here at Grayshott Folk Club, we have an impressive track record of bringing our audiences the very best in traditional Irish/Celtic Folk music.
Altan, The Henry Girls, Colm Mac Con Iomaire, The Outside Track, Crossharbour, Blackthorn and Connla have all played at Grayshott Folk Club in the past.
Tonight, Réalta will carry the baton forward. They are a scintillating 5-piece traditional Celtic/Irish Folk band from Belfast. Instrumentally, they bring to mind both The Bothy Band and Planxty and they are described by Irish Music Magazine as:
“A full bodied pipe and whistle extravaganza”,

Réalta make full use of the intricate melodies and driving rhythms that make Irish music so much loved throughout the world. Performing on dueling uilleann pipes, whistles, bodhrán, guitar, bouzouki, double bass and vocals, this award-winning, Belfast-based band will lead the listener on a journey of music and song through the full range of the Irish tradition…… or as Herald Scotland put it,
“Réalta carry on the Bothy Band tradition of taking tunes by the scruff of the neck and firing excitement through them like hot flames!"
+ Zak Hobbs-Zak is a gifted young guitarist and singer/songwriter. He has a distinguished pedigree and is destined for greater things.......
