One of the world’s most celebrated Irish fiddlers, Martin Hayes has been a standout on the Irish trad scene for decades. A six-time All-Ireland fiddling champion from County Clare—the homeland of traditional Irish music—Hayes has a unique ability to transform and broaden listeners’ understanding. His music remains deeply rooted in Irish expression, yet it reaches across styles and cultures, creating a truly global conversation.
With his Common Ground ensemble, Hayes brings together an extraordinary lineup of guest artists from diverse disciplines—contemporary classical, jazz, dance, and even poetry—for a vibrant cultural celebration. Joining his core group of musicians for this concert are American jazz/folk multi-instrumentalist Sam Amidon, Irish dancer Stephanie Keane, Sean Nós ("old style") singer and harpist Síle Denvir, and American percussive dancer, choreographer, and scholar Nic Gareiss. Pulitzer Prize-winning poet Paul Muldoon adds another essential Irish art form to this rich and dynamic celebration.
