Róisín Elsafty
849 listeners
Róisín comes from Conamara, in the West of Ireland and grew up in a musical family. She has been singing sean-nós from an early age, inspired by her mother, Treasa Ní Cheannabháin Elsafty. Treasa taught her 'amhrán ar an sean-nós' or "old-style singing". This is the age-old art of Irish traditional singing, of an acapella-style and sung singularly. Sean-nós songs can be as much as 600 years old, and have been handed down through the generations, and from district to district. There are a great many themes, as with many songs, but Róisín sings mostly love songs!
