Socks in the Frying Pan

Description

Award-winning Irish trio Socks in the Frying Pan brings the heart of County Clare to the stage with their fresh, energetic take on traditional Irish music. Formed in 2014, the group features Aodán Coyne on guitar and vocals, Shane Hayes on accordion, and Fiachra Hayes on fiddle.
Known for their signature "Socks Sound," the trio combines virtuosic musicianship, smooth three-part harmonies, and charismatic stage presence with deep respect for Irish musical heritage. The result? A rich, rhythmic sound that’s as stirring as it is fun.
They’ve toured 46 U.S. states, dozens of countries, and every continent, lighting up stages at major festivals including Walnut Valley Festival, Electric Picnic, Tønder Festival, and the New Orleans Jazz & Heritage Festival.
With three studio albums and a growing list of accolades, including “Best New Band,” “Best Live Band,” and “Album of the Year,” Socks in the Frying Pan continues to win fans across the globe. Their latest release, Raw & Ríl, a live album recorded at Glór Theatre, was named Best Live Album, showcasing their raw energy and unmistakable chemistry.
Whether you're a long-time fan of Irish trad or new to the genre, this is a performance not to be missed.
