Beoga is the Irish word for 'lively' which aptly describes this groups music. Coming all the way from County Antrim, Ireland, their unique sound features the twin duelling accordians of Seán Óg Graham and Damian McKee, along with four times All-Ireland bodhrán champion Eamon Murray and pianist Liam Bradley. While their music lies firmly within the Irish tradition, they are not afraid to incorporate other genres' nuances into their music. From bluesy riffs to jazz, to a raunchy New Orleans jamboree vibe, their music always returns to a wonderfully bouncy traditional sound.

Described as a 'phenomenon', Irish Music Magazine has proclaimed Beoga’s music as 'madcap genius' and in 2005, they were nominated by for the best traditional newcomer's award. With the addition of one of Ireland's premier young singers, Niamh Dunne, Beoga are confirming their reputation as one of the most exciting acts to emerge from Ireland in recent years. The Chicago American Times proclaims "super vocals, a terrific staccato beat to the rhythm, with a real sense of style and wit. This is a major major band to be reckoned with." The Irish Echo describes Beoga as "perhaps the most audacious band rooted in trad today" ranking them with Irish group Grada, as the two most promising bands launched in the new millennium.

Over the last few years Beoga have performed at major Celtic and Folk festivals throughout Europe and the USA, including the All-Ireland music Fleadh, Dranouter, Tonder, Boston, Kansas and Milwaukee Irish Festivals, the Guinness Irish Christmas tour of Austria, the Irish Folk Festival tour of Germany along with Solas and Kevin Burke, and the Irish Unplugged Tour of Holland with the Fureys and Davey Arthur. In September 2007, Beoga performed live with the BBC Orchestra to a television audience of millions.

Tickets are on sale now at $15 for adults, $10 for members/students, and $8 for children 12 and under.
