Vagabond brothers bring it all back home

With their Ye Vagabonds project, brothers Brían and Diarmuid Mac Gloinn are putting an edgy and intriguing new spin on folk music.
The Carlow siblings grew up speaking Irish — while their love of ’60s protests artists such as Woody Guthrie and Pete Seeger has also seeped into their writing. It’s an earthy, intriguing mix, recognisably Irish yet with an energy all its own. Connoisseurs will be struck by its swagger and raw power.
