Ceol aim to bring folk music to a new generation. Nathan Carter said: “The idea came to me when I was travelling around Ireland and seeing so many talented young musicians singing and playing in pubs every night of the week. I thought to myself, there is an opening here for a great young band who play a mix of the old folk songs with a contemporary modern twist".
CEOL got together in mid-2021, after a nationwide search from more than 1,000 people. They have been writing and recording throughout autumn and winter 2021. CEOL performed their first ever live gig supporting Nathan Carter in front of 5,000 fans over 2 nights at the Waterfront in Belfast.
