She is cellist and Artistic Director of Crash Ensemble, Ireland's leading new music group, a member of Martin Hayes' Common Ground Ensemble, Francesco Turrissi's Taquin experiments, Yurodny, Ergodos Musicians and the electro-folk group Fovea Hex.
"In the decades to come, we'll surely talk of having seen this man in the way others talk of Miles Davis or Jimi Hendrix or John Coltrane." - THE IRISH TIMES
"It's no wonder he's been compared to Miles Davis and Steve Reich." - THE ARTS DESK
"...Martin Hayes's unerring ability to catch an air on the breeze, coaxing a delicate refrain into elevating medleys of more traditional Irish fare." - THE IRISH EXAMINER
