Martin Hayes and Dennis Cahill play National Concert Hall

Trad legends Martin Hayes and Dennis Cahill are in the midst of a hectic tour of the country, with a special date at Dublin's National Concert Hall on June 12.

Virtuoso trad musicians Martin Hayes and Dennis Cahill have been playing together for over twenty years, and have just released their fifth studio album Welcome Here Again.

Hayes (fiddle) and Cahill (guitar) are based in the US, but are currently on tour around Ireland, with gigs taking in The Glens, Manorhamilon, Leitrim (June 6); Townhall Theatre, Galway (7); The Playhouse, Derry (10); The Black Box, Belfast (June 11) and more.

On June 12, the pair stop by Dublin for a show in the National Concert Hall's main auditorium. This date marks their last Irish show for a number of weeks, as they jet off to play a couple of US gigs in Conneticut (where Hayes currently resides) and Massachusetts.

Tickets for the National Concert Hall show range from €25.00-€35.00, on sale now.
