The Whileaways consist of three powerful voices in Irish roots music: Noelie McDonnell, Noriana Kennedy, and Nicola Joyce join forces to create beautiful original songs, and their voices also shine exceptionally well with the music of Leonard Cohen. They are accompanied, among others, by Will Merrigan on bass, Dave Clancy as a keyboardist, Matthew Berrill on saxophone, and Eamon Murray on drums.
