about

Inni-K's third studio album, Iníon, is a contemporary sean-nós album.

Recorded over 4 days in Dublin in November 2021

Over nine tracks, Inni-K searches out the beauty, tradition and ancient pathos of sean-nós in a contemporary, vital and unique reimagining. She is a singer both reaching back into a deeply held tradition, while simultaneously pressing out against its very edges. Inni-K sets out to create a re-hearing, in a way, of something dear, something essential, and in doing so, she has – with fellow collaborators – created a bold, new and contemporary experience of sean-nós song for her listener.

In each new iteration of these songs, Inni-K seeks fresh perspectives and sonic concepts for us. She is rethreading song and story, voice and singer in all its diverse traditional beauty and bringing in her own striking and contemporary style and music.

Iníon shows the confidence and musical maturity of a singer who is both deeply rooted in the Irish tradition and is free to explore.

In the liner notes for Iníon, Inni-K says: “The roots of this album reach deep. In my mind’s eye, I see myself, aged 11, at home, tracing my finger across a small dent in the front of the record player and listening to a Gael Linn record that Mam and Dad had, hearing the singing of Seosamh Ó hÉanaí. In that moment, I was transfixed. I became fascinated by sean-nós singing and, through the years since, have explored that compulsion alongside other musical curiosities and influences. Iníon is a circling back to my musical lineage to honour my first deep love of sean-nós song and what has been passed onto me. The same momentum carries me and this music forward, joyfully falling into step with fellow explorers of different musical genres, from jazz to classical, to imagine together and share new iterations of some of the songs I love most from our singing tradition.

I try to be a caring, attentive daughter of our rich song and music traditions, and also hope to be an innovative, curious and adventurous one!”
