Eidir was an:
acoustic duo with a big sound.
Derek Byrne sings in Irish, English and
drum speak, while playing
rhythm and lead
on five sting banjo.
Jim Wirt sings and plays a vast array
of percussion, he fills the base
and percussion roles with
a very melodic feel.
Original material makes up the bulk
of their set list. They chant in gaelic
play jigs and reels and cover
ancient Irish favorites with a
unique twist.
Most shows feature Irish dancing
with special guests.
Eidir is traditional yet unpredictable.
Intimate yet electric
Irish and International
Eidir is Irish for between.
