Beoga (Irish word for "lively") are a five-piece traditional band based in County Antrim, Ireland. The band was drawn together after "jamming" in a ferocious music session at the All-Ireland Fleadh in August 2002. Their unique sound features the twin duelling accordians of Sean Og Graham and Damian McKee, along with four times All-Ireland bodhran champion Eamon Murray and pianist Liam Bradley. In 2005, Beoga were nominated by Irish Music Magazine for the best traditional newcomer's award. With the addition of one of Ireland's premier young singers, Niamh Dunne, Beoga have confirmed their reputation as one of the most exciting acts to emerge from Ireland in recent years.
