Caoivín

Caoivín (pronounced "kwee-veen") is a producer, singer and multi-instrumentalist fusing the worlds of trad and modern dance music. Born into a musical family, he began playing traditional Irish music at the tender age of 5 and spent the majority of his early childhood summers travelling to and from various different fleadhs and music weeks. Following a spate of powerful experiences on the dancefloors of clubs and festivals in his late teens and early twenties, he began to develop an interest in a wide variety of other genres outside of the traditional Irish music realm which led him to discover most notably electronic dance music and its many forms.
The unique sound of Caoivín takes influence from the range of musical styles which the musician has been exploring from that point up until now, while being rooted at the same time to the long unbroken lineage of traditional music on which he was reared.
