“I Draw Slow are probably Ireland’s best exponents of the fusion of Celtic and American music.” -LONESOME HIGHWAY

I Draw Slow have been redefining acoustic roots music for over ten years. The band have been together for 13 years and have released five critically acclaimed albums during this time.  Their last two albums have been released on Compass records in Nashville, one of the leading independent labels in the U.S. Their fourth, “Turn Your face to the Sun” went to number one in the Irish charts and I Draw Slow received a gold disc in 2017 from IMRO for this honour. Their music has been licenced for film and TV and has been recorded and covered by other artists. The band appeared in a major Kerrygold butter commercial which featured one of their songs, Swans. They are also known for their high production videos featuring actors such as Aidan Gillan (Game of Thrones) and award winning directors Hugh O’Conor and Ronan Fox. 

As well as a reputation for fine song writing, their live shows are a unique and captivating experience with dedicated fans traveling far and wide to see them. They tour internationally and have fully established themselves on the North American acoustic music scene, touring the U.S. and Canada over 35 times since 2013.
