about
Conor Moriarty is an all Ireland Champion accordion and melodeon player steeped in the musical traditions of his native Sliabh Luachra homestead. Conor began his musical journey at the tender age of 7 learning from many of the great local musicians such as John Brosnan and Jimmy Doyle just to mention a few. In 2009, he became all Ireland 10 key melodeon champion and the following year he was crowned with the much coveted all Ireland senior accordion title. In the same year he completed his masters in Traditional Irish Music Performance in University of Limerick under the guidance of one of his biggest influences, Derek Hickey. Conor’s debut solo recording ‘All in a day’s play’ was released in 2012 to great critical acclaim. He has toured extensively at home and all over the world including America, Australia, China and Europe.
