"Make no mistake, Martin Hayes is the most innovative and influential fiddler on the Irish scene today." - Boston Globe
Martin Hayes's soulful interpretations of traditional Irish music are recognized the world over for their exquisite musicality and irresistible rhythm. His fiddle playing is rooted in East County Clare where he grew up playing with his father, the legendary P.J. Hayes, and his Tulla Ceili Band. Martin's many awards include Ireland's Musician of the Year (TG4), Folk Instrumentalist of the Year (BBC), and Person of the Year by both the Irish Arts Center and the American Irish Historical Society, both based in New York.
With guitarist Dennis Cahill, Martin has toured and recorded as a renowned duo for twenty-five years. Their highlights include performing for President Obama and members of Congress in 2011, and releasing three acclaimed albums. Martin has also collaborated with such extraordinary musicians as Bill Frisell, Ricky Skaggs, Jordi Savall, Cassandra Wilson, Brooklyn Rider, Paul Simon, Sting, and Yo-Yo Ma's Silk Road Ensemble on the recent Grammy-winning album "Sing Me Home", as well as playing with some of the leading Irish musicians over the past thirty-five years.
He is Artistic Director of the annual Masters of Tradition festival in Bantry, Co. Cork, and a curator for the Kilkenny Arts Festival. Martin is a founder of the Irish-American supergroup The Gloaming which was awarded Ireland's Meteor Choice Prize in 2014. His new Martin Hayes Quartet with Dennis Cahill, Liz Knowles and Doug Wieselman will tour the US this fall. Their debut album "The Blue Room" is called "nothing short of revelatory" by Glasgow Life.
