“Sparrow”
The new, full-length album by Avourneen

Avourneen released its first full-length album “Sparrow” in March after a sold-out release show show at the historic Clocktower Cabaret in Denver, CO. The new album features 15 tracks and includes original compositions, traditional favorites and long-form instrumentals. The album, recorded over a 10-month span in 2019, will mark the band’s follow-up to its 2014 debut EP, “Beloved.” Irish Music Magazine calls the album “a tribute to (the band’s) love of good music and a willingness to experiment,” and notes, “If you like your Irish music with a little bit of an original twist, this is the CD for you.” The album is available for order in the “Store” section of the website.
