Doolin’

Doolin’ are a six-piece French band from Toulouse and they make Irish traditional music. The Irish Times says they do it “brilliantly”. Who are we to argue? They have solid credentials – brothers Josselin and Jacob Fournel are tin whistle and bodhran laureates in Ireland – but they’ve brought in jazz and rock riffs to create a sound that’s very much their own. The band’s fourth album Doolin’ was inspired by the 1845 Irish potato famine and they have released their newest album Circus Boy in March 2023.
