  Flook News

 

 

 

2016 got off to a fantastic start in Glasgow last week, where we performed up at Celtic Connections as part of the mighty Armagh Piping Club 50th Birthday gig at the Fruitmarket, alongside Lunasa, Buille and a whole host of other great musicians.
 

 

Next up is Ireland, where we have 5 gigs from Sunday 31 January to Sunday 7 February. It's a long while since we've played a show in Dublin, so we're really looking forward to appearing the Sugar Club on Thursday 4 February.

Germany, Japan and Austria follow in April, May and June.

Watch this space for more updates.

Our Facebook page is great way to keep in regular touch with what we're up to and see pics from the road, and we're doing our best with Twitter too. Both links are at the top of this page.
