Gudrun Walther and Juergen Treyz are among Germany’s most successful and well respected trad musicians. Their band, CARA, has won two Irish Music Awards (USA)  and is touring Europe, the US and Australia. They have also long established a reputation for collaborative projects with Irish musicians. October 2024 will see them going on tour with Nuala Kennedy and Aaron Jones for the first time. Dundalk native Nuala Kennedy, is a critically acclaimed touring and recording artist. She sings, plays flute and whistle, and is a writer of songs and tunes. Aaron Jones is based in Scotland, but his family roots are in Belfast. He is a singer and bouzouki player and tours with Scots band Old Blind Dogs among others. This tour brings together four exceptional award-winning musicians, sharing their heritage as well as their creative outlook on traditional Irish music. The three voices of the lead singers will guarantee goosebumps.

German musicians Gudrun Walther and Juergen Treyz have long established a reputation for collaborative projects with Irish musicians. Gudrun Walther has played Irish music from the age of five, growing up in a family of musicians in Southern Germany. Walther and Treyz have collaborated and toured Germany, the UK and the US with All-Ireland champion Claire Mann and Aaron Jones as “the 2duos” and more recently toured Germany with Sligo fiddle legend Oisín MacDiarmada and séan-nos dancer and pianist Samantha Harvey as “Fiddles and Feet”. Both musicians are on a life-long journey learning about, teaching and promoting Irish music both in its traditional and innovative form in their home country. In October 2024, our team at artes Konzertbuero are planning a one-off collaborative quartet tour with the two German musicians plus two Irish musicians, Nuala Kennedy (based in Ennis, Co.Clare) and Aaron Jones (currently based in the UK).
