NOTIFY are a 6 piece Irish based contemporary instrumental ensemble fronted by concertina player Pádraig Rynne. The band was created by Pádraig following the success of his 2013 album of the same name. Originally a four piece band of Irish / American guest members, the group has evolved over the years to having many different well-known members. Currently Pádraig has assembled 5 of Irish music’s best musicians joining him for live concerts with Tara Breen (Fiddle), Davie Ryan (Drums), Rory McCarthy (Piano & Keyboards), Adam Taylor (Electric Bass) and Hugh Dillon (Acoustic & Electric Guitars).
NOTIFY have released two full length albums and one EP. NOTIFY was released in 2013 and it debuted at No 20 in the iTunes World music charts upon its release. In 2015, NOTIFY signed with world famous American jazz label Ropeadope. The band’s second album, released in 2016, premiered at the No. 1 spot in the iTunes jazz charts and at No. 9 in the mainstream iTunes charts.
Well known for their High-Profile collaborations, NOTIFY have invited guests such as Mark Lettieri & Jason Thomas (4 time Grammy award winners with Snarky Puppy), Muireann Nic Amhlaoibh and Kris Drever to perform and tour with them in recent years.
The band delivers an evocative repertoire of original compositions, produced with sensitive electronic overlays and inventive arrangements that are “cinematic in scope” (New York Echo). NOTIFY seamlessly fuses a deep knowledge and respect for the Irish musical tradition with forward thinking innovation presented in a tasteful way that connects with audiences at home and overseas.
This line up of top ranked musicians from backgrounds in jazz, traditional Irish, Avant-Garde and Folk music has naturally established a system of balance that instantly draws listeners to the music. At the crossroads of a new movement in Irish music, “NOTIFY breathes new life into their music, with a musical tapestry that ranges from soft melodies to crashing crescendos” (The Irish Times).
NOTIFY are currently putting the final touches to a new album due out in 2024 which features special guests Seamus and Caoimhe Ui Fhlatharta and Tyler Duncan
