On their highly anticipated second album, Lúireach, Landless bring together four distinct voices—Méabh Meir, Lily Power, Ruth Clinton, and Sinéad Lynch—to create spellbinding harmonies that draw from the deep well of folk tradition. Produced by John “Spud” Murphy for Glitterbeat in 2024, the group’s crystalline vocals and minimal instrumental backdrops breathe new vitality into timeless songs and stories, illuminating even the darkest subjects with poignant light.
Lúireach takes its name from the Irish word for “cloak,” invoking themes of protection and resilience throughout a collection of songs that range from ancient ballads to powerful portraits of bold women. Sparse instrumentation, including pump organ and shruti box, allows the tightly woven voices to shine, offering listeners a transformative journey through the beauty and complexity of folk music’s rich harmonies.
