Colm Seoighe agus Na hEasógaí are a Conamara-based band creating contemporary music through the medium of Irish. Founded in Scoil Chuimsitheach Chiaráin in 2022 and now based in Galway, the group has developed a distinctive sound that blends music, lyrics, and visual elements.
Na hEasógaí fuse rock, Irish traditional, and world music styles, all performed in their native language. Their sound combines instruments such as the uilleann pipes and electric guitar, resulting in a rich and varied musical texture.
The band is led by singer-songwriter Colm Seoighe from Ros an Mhíl. He is joined by Fionn Ó Cualáin, Daragh Jennings, Seán Ó Gallchobhair, and Muiris Ó Clochartaigh, along with occasional collaborators.
Following a nationwide tour with Damien Dempsey in the spring, Na hEasógaí have continued to gain recognition and have appeared on RTÉ’s programme An Ghig Mhór.
