Synopsis
Synopsis

Fuaim performs an eclectic mix of traditional Irish tunes. From heart-stopping reels and jigs, where James Chan’s flute is driven by Pamela Ng’s power bodhran (an Irish frame drum) beats and Gerry Cox’s guitar, to haunting, ethereal slow airs interspersed with century-old songs passed down through generations. Dancing is entirely optional—but resisting the urge won’t be easy.

Artist Information

Fuaim

Fuaim take their name from the Irish word “sound”. This eclectic trio first appeared at the Irish Embassy’s St. Patrick’s Day Reception at the Conrad Hotel in March 2023 and again in May at the Red Dot Green Dot event at LASALLE College of the Arts, and received a rapturous response. The group is made up of three of the finest exponents of Irish traditional and folk music in the region. Irishman and longtime Singapore resident Gerry Cox (guitar and vocals) is joined by Singaporeans James Chan (flute and whistles) and Pamela Ng (flute, whistles and bodhran).
