On 26 Feb 2016, The Gloaming ( Martin Hayes, Iarla O'Lionarid, Caoimhin O'Raghallaigh, Dennis Cahill & Thomas Bartlett) will release their highly anticipated second LP on Brassland / Real World Records in USA. To support its release they plan a special album launch tour with prestige presenters including The Savannah Music Festival, Duke Performances, Texas A&M and The Big Ears Festival.

The group has quickly become one of the world's most renown live acts. they have performed to packed houses at the Barbican in London, Sydney Opera House in Australia, Mexico City's Teatro de al Ciudad, New York's Lincoln Center and WOMAD festivals worldwide. They have also sold out multiple concerts at home from Dublin's National Concert Hall to the Cork Opera House.
