Seamus Egan was born in Hatboro, Pennsylvania, near Philadelphia, in 1969. His parents returned to Foxford, Co. Mayo five years later and it was here that Seamus - on hearing Matt Molloy - became interested in traditional music. Martin Donoghue from Ballindine was his teacher during those formative years. On returning to America he was fortunate to meet Mick Moloney, the folklorist and banjo player. Mick acted as a mentor, guiding Seamus in both style and repertoire.

High Tea
High Tea is a playful exploration of traditional fiddle music and the South Indian rhythmic concept of "tihai." With tabla player Ty Burhoe and electric bassist Evan Marien, Andy Reiner presents a completely original take on the standard 32-bar fiddle tune form, featuring through-composed variations alongside improvisations. Post-Production Engineer James Tuttle folds his post-production role into the arrangement by upgrading acoustic fiddle drones into a lush and swirly soundscape.more
