To date, they have brought their live show to 25 countries, earned three nominations for ‘Folk Band of The Year’ in 2016, 2019, 2022 and 2023 and enjoyed collaborations such as with the Royal Scottish National Orchestra, songwriting legend Dougie MacLean and Nepal’s folk exponents Kutumba.
Approaching a decade together as a band, Dallahan have become a veteran touring outfit and with each album they continue to evolve their sound – which they call their own brand of world-folk.
