From his iconic early recording of the vision song "Aisling Gheal" as a young boy to his ground\n\nbreaking recordings with Dublin's Crash Ensemble and New York's Alarm Will Sound\, he has shown a breadth of artistic ambition that sets him apart in the Irish Music fraternity. He's a child of traditional music\, born and bred in C il Aodha\, in the belly of the West Cork Gaeltacht\, with Se n Riada a neighbour and indisputable early influence. His great aunt\, the traditional singer Elizabeth Cronin\, had forged a reputation for rich interpretation before him\, paving the way for the young Lion ird to still audiences with his plaintive\, textured voice at Mass\, and later\, in parlours\, front rooms\, snugs\, town halls and concert halls.\n\n\n\nThe truth is\, it's the individual sonic qualities of Iarla Lion ird's voice that define him. That voice\, with all its midnight depth and soaring breadth\, transcends anything that might box or classify him as one thing or another.\n\n\n\nCormac McCarthy is a pianist\, composer\, arranger and conductor from Cork\, Ireland. Noted for a diverse stylistic palette\, and equally at home in a variety of genres\, his music is said to "defy categorisation" (Lyric FM). In 2010\, having completed his Masters degree in composition at the MTU Cork School of Music\, Cormac received the prestigious Bill Whelan International Music Bursary\, an award earmarked for young Irish composers studying abroad. He spent a number of years living in Chicago\, where he completed a Masters in Jazz Studies at DePaul University.
