Runa

Runa breathes fresh life into traditional Celtic music by digging into the songs and tunes to find the universal thread that binds past to present.
Celebrating 14 years together as a band, Celtic-American Roots music “super group”, RUNA,
continues to push the boundaries of Irish folk music into the Americana and
roots music formats. Interweaving the haunting melodies and exuberant tunes of
Ireland and Scotland with the lush harmonies and intoxicating rhythms of jazz,
bluegrass, flamenco and blues, they offer a thrilling and redefining take on
traditional music.
Seeking to preserve and continue a traditional culture in a modern age, RUNA creates
the backbone of its signature roots sound from the musical and geographical
diversity of its individually established band members. Their strive for excellence
and creativity blazes a trail for the future of folk music, earning them the
reputation as one of the most innovative Irish folk groups of this generation.
