"Grada is to Irish music what Arcade Fire is to Indie - informal, prodigious and full of spirit" - The Washington Post.

Now well established in Irish music circles, Gráda, with their new album Natural Angle, launches headlong into the cross-genre world of new acoustic music, bridging traditional Celtic and Appalachian tunes and songs with contemporary pop and Americana songwriting. Produced by Tim O’Brien in Nashville and featuring guest appearances by Odessa Jorgensen (Bearfoot) and Alison Brown, as well as O’Brien, Gráda triumphantly captures the natural live energy of their live performances and is backed up by arguably the band’s most inspired and complete selection of music to date.

Composed of members Gerry Paul (Guitar), Nicola Joyce (vocals, bodhrán), Stephen Doherty (flute, whistle, accordion), David Doocey (fiddle, concertina), and Andrew Laking (bass). Through their recent appearances at key Americana and roots festivals across four continents the band continues to win new fans at a rapid clip.
