Trad supergroup Jiggy continue the tradition of their musical ancestors while bringing a whole new exotic flavour to the table. More of a collective than an orthodox band, Jiggy’s mercurial line up mixes and melds Irish traditional music, world rhythms and cutting-edge dance grooves.  Joining them on-stage will be ethnic dance group Shamrock Bhangra.
