TWO Donegal artists are to feature in a bold new Irish-language music series which is set to shake up the music scene with fresh collaborations, daring reinventions and unforgettable live performances.<\/p>\n
Casadh sa Cheol is a six-part television series for TG4 that challenges artists from dramatically different musical worlds to swap and reinterpret each other\u2019s most cherished tracks, culminating in a powerful, one-off performance filmed live at The Belfast Barge, an intimate floating venue in the heart of Belfast.<\/p>\n
Emma N\u00ed Fh\u00edoruisce will feature on the first episode alongside Grooveline from Leitrim and Eve Belle will feature on episode 6 alongside Na Tonnta from Dublin.<\/p>\n

The first episode\u00a0airs on TG4 on Sunday, March 8 at 8pm.<\/p>\n
At the start of each episode, the artists hear each other\u2019s song for the first time before spending just two days rehearsing and reinterpreting the sound to suit their own style. From sean-n\u00f3s to electropop, punk to folk, Casadh sa Cheol sees two artists dive into each other\u2019s creative space, pushing their sound, identity and comfort zones.<\/p>\n
They don\u2019t meet until the day of the performance, moments before they step on stage, in front of a live audience and each other.<\/p>\n
The series showcases some of the most exciting and genre-defying emerging talent from across the island of Ireland:<\/p>\n
