Kíla have been a guiding light in new Irish music for the past number of years, inspiring countless thousands to cheer, to smile, to weep or simply to jump up and down. Music that lights a fire in your belly, or washes over you in waves of technicolour splendour. ‘It’s all in the tunes,’ says Rónán.
And here are the tunes – some simple, some abstract, some devilishly tricky – written out in staff notation and ‘ABCs’ for you to try out and make your own.
Over 100 new tunes, lavishly accompanied by new photographs, with poetic and prosaic contributions from Donal O’Kelly, Steve Cooney, Colm Mac Con Iomaire among others.

“ Kíla is a genre: the genre of Ireland standing and dancing free and firm amidst the roar of a world of fm music. This book carries the genre forward. Read it, play it, sing it and dance it with pride, as an equal and welcome member of the Kíla tribe. “ Professor Lizbeth Goodman, Chair of Creative Technology Innovation, SMARTlab, UCD.
