A storming new band, blending the drive of Irish traditional music and bluegrass with the heart and soul of folk and Appalachian music - spiced up with an Italian seasoning for extra flair!
Gadan is a fresh project created by seasoned Italian musicians from the Irish trad and European folk/ rock scene, all with years of experience performing at major traditional and alternative music festivals across Europe and the US. The band originally featured four members, all Italian, bringing exceptional skill and passion to Irish traditional music and old-time American styles - a distinctive and remarkable combination.
