Previous recipients include legendary names such as The Dubliners\, The Clancy Brothers\, Altan\, and The Sands Family. \nIn honouring Lúnasa\, Fiddlers Green Festival celebrates a band whose innovation\, musicianship\, and global influence have helped shape modern Irish traditional music while inspiring audiences and musicians around the world.
