After a surreal time for us all, we emerge from hibernation ready to bloom into a new beginning. Join Ajeet for an evening in the ambient, meditative space of Christ Church Cathedral in the heart of Dublin, for a truly original musical journey.

Ajeet’s music is often described as healing, transporting and as offering a moment of peace in a fast moving world. Celebrated as #1 on the iTunes World Chart and Billboard Top 10 New Age Chart, Ajeet’s music continues to be embraced by communities across the globe.

The band comes together from Ireland, United States and Spain with Sam Killeen on guitar, Aisling Urwin on harp, Raffa Martinez on percussion, and Ajeet on vocals, flutes and bodhrán. The supporting act for this event will be announced soon.

The woven soundscapes reflect the folk cultures of the band’s own homelands, and also glisten with the songs and sounds they’ve collected over decades of travel and musical study around the world.

Tickets : €35 General Admission, €40 Premium Seating, or €90 VIP. Concession tickets are also available in the side aisles for €20 (no stage visibility).
