Ronan Browne - Cran

Cran

Ronan is a member of the group Cran with Seán Corcoran and Desi Wilkinson. Cran has released four CDs and tour worldwide. The core of their repertoire is native Irish material - dance music or slow airs on flute and pipes, and vocals ranging from the highly-ornamented sean-nós songs of Conamara to the rollicking port a' bhéil or mouth music of Donegal. Their Hiberno-English song repertoire (songs from Ireland in English) covers the entire gamut from the old story-telling "long ballads" to lively comic songs of "pure divilment and rascality". They also include material from the related Scots-Gaelic tradition and from the other Atlantic Celts, the Bretons.

Cran have released four CDs: .

Over the last 20 years, Ronan has established a duet with fiddle player Kevin Glackin; Kevin regularly joins Cran for recordings along with Tríona Ní Dhomhnaill (Bothy Band).
