This is the show you want to catch!
The debut album Here & There is a masterpiece of classy compositions, good feels and improvisations that are truly virtuosic. Composed and recorded in Ireland and Australia during 2023, they unite their influences of world music, surf music, jazz, trad, improvisation, classical, rock and contemporary to create a fresh new instrumental genre for the ear-weary. With successful individual careers, De Ziah & Date have won awards for music and film, including Best Documentary for the Irish music film Living the Tradition which they often show as part of their live performances. They have recorded solo and band albums previously but this new project marks an exciting departure for a captivating musical journey of melody-drenched instrumental songs. Stories of sea and sand, solace in darkness, ambush, and the winding ways life takes.
“Beautiful & exciting new sounds!” - Robin Nolan gypsy jazz guitarist
“Beautifully recorded, virtuosically played, wonderfully diverse and so emotionally engaging…what’s not to love? And yet it’s none of these things that are the compelling reason that I listened with such relish - it’s that this offering is so fresh, it lives up to the claim (and then some) that this is for the ear-weary. A pure delight! ” - James Morrison, musician, multi-instrumentalist, educator
“a gem glistening with grace and sparkle” - Liam Murphy, Munster Express
