Last year, IMLÉ were one of the Irish language bands that were doing something different. Featuring three vocalists of different shades: singer Fergal Moloney, punk poet-style Marcus Mac Conghail’s and rapper MC Muipéad, their self-titled debut album from last year meditative folk, pop and rap styles in our native tongue to impressive effect.
A vinyl version of the album is out via Gael Linn today, the organisations first vinyl release in 30 years, and there are two new tracks for you to hear: Gan Mise, Gan Tú & Ná Bac.
Gan Mise, Gan Tú:
Ná Bac:
IMLÉ won best album, song and band at the 2017 Gradaim Cheoil NÓS – an awards ceremony that celebrates contemporary music in Irish organised by Nos.ie
