Mac Ivors Homegrown Presents TRÚ with Polar Bolero

TRÚ return to The Sunflower following the release of their critically acclaimed album “Eternity Near”

TRÚ draw their inspiration from a mythological trio of poet-musicians who were revered throughout the Celtic world. Michael Mormecha (percussion/vox), Zachary Trouton (guitars/vox) and Dónal Kearney (flute/vox) come from different musical backgrounds.

The three are children of the Peace Agreement in post-conflict Northern Ireland. From their British-Ukrainian, Ulster-Scots and Irish heritage, they have inherited an unusual and fruitful ethos based on respect and exploration.

Following on from 2020’s critically acclaimed “No Fixed Abode” (MOJO Top 10 Folk Albums, NI Music Prize nominee), their new record, “Eternity Near”, fuses the love poetry of Robert Burns with epic sean-nós songs and mixes medieval murder ballads with hints of country and Americana.

These are stories told with a contemporary voice. There is nothing traditional about TRÚ except the songs themselves.

With support from Polar Bolero, an intriguing "Alt-Folk" band with a unique musical style. Their original songs offer an immersive experience for their audience, exploring elements of Folk, Jazz, and Trad, resulting in spacious, cinematic sounds with vocals that exude a mature depth beyond their years.
