Fourth Moon Tour Dates and Upcoming Concerts

After years of hiding, Fourth Moon are finally here! With a killer - albeit unorthodox - line up of musicians, they certainly don’t fail to raise the bar. Compromising of members from Talisk, Ímar, Holiday ON iO and Event Horizon with a whole host of awards under their belts including the 2016 BBC Radio Scotland Young Musician of the Year, 2015 BBC Radio 2 Young Folk Award Winner, 2015 MG ABLA Up and Coming Artist of the Year nomination, Piping championship titles in Germany/Austria and upwards of 5 All Britain titles, Fourth Moon are coming with a bang. "Absolutely Amazing" - BBC Radio Scotland The line up consists of Mohsen Amini (Concertina), David Lombardi (Fiddle), Géza Frank (Whistles, Flute, Pipes) and Jean Damei (Guitar), who between them have performed Globally with their own projects and also with the likes of Riverdance and Carlos Nûnez. Amini from Scotland, originally met the band in Limerick, where the other three at the time were studying a Masters in traditional music at the World Academy of Irish Music, UL. Lombardi, Italian native, Frank from Austria and Damei from the South of France, with no obviously Irish roots between them are the reason for the whole concept being slightly unusual, Mohsen says, “It’s incredible to hear all the different ideas and ways to express music that everyone has brought to the table, stuff that you just wouldn’t find anywhere else, Lombardi also being from a classical background completely opens us to a whole range of different possibilities that we wouldn’t have even known existed.” Speaking to Damei he mentions that “The whole idea of the band was to bring together a collective, who share a common ground of innovation but who also keep traditional music at the core and so with this we have incorporated a lot of own compositions and adapted them to given them the ‘Fourth Moon’ branding”. Debuting briefly in 2015 at Celticîmes and with an album underway, due for release in 2017 followed by extensive touring, Frank says “I just can’t wait to share Fourth Moon with the world” and if the band are excited then I don’t need to tell you that you should be to. Fourth Moon are coming.
