Airneán named as the critics no 1. folk album of the year by the Irish Times.
“Airneán, meaning Night Visiting (a nod to the band’s nocturnal recording patterns), feels like a meeting of the waters, with sounds ebbing and flowing around Rynne’s lithe concertina, Davie Ryan’s drums and percussion, Tara Breen’s fiddle and, crucially, Adam Taylor’s languid bass lines. Hugh Dillon’s acoustic and electric guitars and Rory McCarthy’s piano and Fender Rhodes complete this acoustic helix, one that curves and swerves in patterns that are drenched in contemporary composition but shot through with traditional influences”. - The Irish Times, Feb 2024.

"Notify: Airneán – Contemporary and traditional worlds intersect effortlessly. This is an organic, deeply thoughtful collection infused with a curiosity and an appetite for exploration." - Siobhan Long, The Irish Times
“Notify hit all the buttons I like having pressed. Consummate musicians, imbued with a deep love of their craft, and producing art which prompts an emotional and intellectual reaction in the listener. Worlds Collide is an album which celebrates life. A stunning album which lives long in the memory..” - Steve Lazeby, Lazland.
