Question of Taste: Doireann Ní Ghlacáin

Doireann Ní Ghlacáin, musician and TG4 presenter for Fleadh2020. 

Doireann Ní Ghlacáin hails from Clontarf in Dublin.  She will present Fleadh 2020 nightly over the next four nights on TG4 at 9.30pm. 

From her maternal family in Cúil Aodha, Doireann says she inherited a love for the Irish language, from her Father’s family a love for the fiddle. A native Irish speaker and a decent fiddle player, she has been involved in traditional music broadcasting over the past few years on TG4. She is currently completing a PhD in NUIG on oral poetry in the Irish language and has recently released her debut album, The Housekeepers.
