Two Fathers, Two Sons, One Unforgettable Musical Feast!
With their debut album Family Stew, the four musicians of Dads & Lads
invite you to the table for a heartfelt celebration of music. Together,
they serve up a rich mix of beloved tunes, carefully crafted and
simmered in the warmth of family. From the rolling hills of Ireland to
the open spaces of America, from Sweden’s serene lakes to the St.
Lawrence River in Quebec, traditional and folk music tell a universal
story — one of heritage, of passing on, of sharing melodies hand to
hand, heart to heart. That’s why the Crommens and the Fahys come
together, fathers and sons, in a quartet that’s intimate,
intergenerational, and full of life.
Because, at its core, it all started at home.
Their journey is a tapestry of influences, friendships, and family ties,
giving rise to a repertoire that instantly feels like home. Violins,
mandolin, guitar, and harmonica blend to bring both timeless classics
and fresh compositions to life. Each tune is reimagined, sprinkled with
improvisation here, original touches there — a sound rooted in tradition
but alive in the present. This is family folk music at its most vibrant
and genuine.
So, say goodbye to rainy Sundays spent playing in the kitchen – Thierry,
Kieran, Téo, and Lorcan are taking the stage to share their favorite
tunes from yesterday and today. Pull up a chair, feel the warmth, and
enjoy a musical feast where everyone is welcome at the table.
