Now Listening To..... Gráda - Endeavour

Based out of both Galway and Dublin, Gráda has been making music in the traditional style since 2001. Between their frequent international touring, they have released five studio albums, consisting of:

- Off to Sardinia (2001)
- Endeavour (2002)
- The Landing Step (2004)
- Cloudy Day Navigation (2007)
- Natural Angle (2010)

The tracks on their second album are varied, starting with a fast paced song sung in Irish, then moving on to multiple instrumentals and english sung songs. The complete album is nice and relaxing while at the same time maintaining a nice energy. As I already have a lot of instrumental Irish music, I more preferred their lyrical songs, but I would recommend the entire album. Below is one of their instrumentals (the second track) and one of their lyrical songs (the fourth track) from Endeavour.
