“There is rhythm in the sadness; there is rhythm in the sod”
Grown from the boggy outcrop of the Muskerry Gaeltacht, Leevy are finding beauty and madness in the harshest corners of the Irish psyche.
Setting audiences alight across the land, they have built their reputation as one of Ireland’s most exciting acts. At a Leevy gig, laughing, introspection, dancing and crying all go hand in hand.
From Gothic revenge tales and sacrificial burnings at wakes, to forlorn songs of loss and the death of the natural world, Leevy’s songs dance around the threshold of this world and the next.
With a sound that can roar with pounding drums, banjos, whistles, and heavy guitars and can just as easily sway with beautiful folk arrangements and harmonies tied to tradition and culture.
