Original founding member & band leader of internationally acclaimed traditional super group De Dannan, Frankie Gavin is one of the genuine legends of Irish music. He’s considered the ‘Fastest Fiddle Player in the World’ according to Guinness World Records and is known for electrifying live performances. Throughout their multiple lineups in nearly forty years, De Dannan has been responsible for bringing their lead singers like Mary Black, like Dolores Keane & Maura O Connell to worldwide prominence. Frankie Gavin & De Dannan’s recent album is “Jigs, Reels & Rock ‘n’ Roll’” which includes a guest appearance by Rolling Stone’s Ronnie Wood. “Frankie Gavin and De Dannan are the jewel in the crown, and as the musicians hit top gear some of the fast reels in particular are mesmerizing” – Carl Dixon of The Irish Examiner "Rightly heralded as the greatest Irish fiddler player, Frankie Gavin has nothing left to prove...Gavin is a true fiddle-playing genius, one who continues to inspire and dumbfound in equal measure" - The Scotsman
