The experimental but traditional-based ensemble has two studio albums to their name, The Gloaming (2014) and The Gloaming 2 (2016).
Assembling Live at NCH, Bartlett, who is also the band's producer, decided on six tracks: The Booley House, Cucanandy, The Sailor’s Bonnet, The Pilgrim’s Song, The Rolling Wave and Fáinleog.
The Gloaming have not only enjoyed success in Ireland but have wowed audiences at London’s Royal Albert Hall, Sydney’s Opera House, New York’s Lincoln Center, Hamburg’s Elbphilharmonie, Mexico City’s Teatro de la Ciudad, and Philharmonie de Paris.
The new album is out on March 2 and is available on CD, Digital and double LP.
