Madra Salach

About Madra Salach

Madra Salach are a five piece folk band from Dublin.

Originally meeting whilst playing in various outfits on the city’s indie scene, their shared love of the Irish traditional canon led to Paul Banks, Adam Cullen, Jack Martin and Dara Duffy quickly forming a bond playing impromptu sessions in pubs around the Northside.

Taking inspiration from the growing experimental folk scene in Ireland, Madra Salach began focusing on original writing and composition, utilising electronic equipment. At this time Maxime Arnold joined their ranks to play the harmonium.

These songs, while strikingly modern thematically, are written with a voice that could have emerged at any point throughout the last century, and sit proudly alongside a thoughtfully curated collection of folk standards.
