Stella Rodrigues and Dylan Gully met in a Cork trad session 5 years ago both playing Irish and Balkan traditional music. They play toguether in Irish-Balkan fusion band Lazik (www.lazikmuzik.com), in gypsy music collective Pas d'Nom Pas d'Maison in France, in Electric-Balkan music band Za Ucha, and just started a new Irish music quartet with Martin Tourish and Matt Griffin playing next week in Brittany.
Lured to Ireland by the rich musical life she has been immersed in the session scene for the last six years playing gigs at sessions and festivals all over the country and abroad. The University College Cork allowed her to expand her musical diversity by formally studying Traditional Irish music, Central Javanese Gamelan and Baroque music. While at UCC she won a scholarship to study Gamelan music in Indonesia for three months, specialising in the rebab, a stringed bowed instrument from Arabian origin. Upon completing her ‘Bachelor of Music’ degree, she was commissioned to do many performances for the Cork City Capital of Culture, the highlight of which was “The Merchant of Venice†where she played a leading musical part under the direction of Mel Mercier. She teaches Gamelan and Klezmer music at UCC as well as having many Classical violin and Traditional Irish fiddle pupils, and performs Irish Traditional music sessions on a weekly basis.
Dylan Gully (Clarinet) was born in Brittany in 1984. He learnt music through both academic studies and travels, as he has always had a passion for traditional musics from Eastern to Western Europe. He plays the clarinet and flutes for about 20 years. He has been involved for the last 10 years in many transcultural projects fusing jazz, world musics, or electronics, as an Engineer in music systems. He had a gold medal in clarinet performance in 2005 in the 'Conservatoire de Lille' (France), and a M.Sc. in Music Technology in 2008 in the University of Limerick.
From 1998 to 2003 he played classical, jazz and trad pieces with the Belgian pianist and composer Laurent Beeckmans. In 2004 he become part of the ensemble "Tarab Med", fusing Mediterranean musics and musicians from Marocco, Tunisia, Egypt, Liban, Turquey, and Greece. Dylan received several awards and won in 2006 the Het Lindeboom competition for traditional music with the trio Troad.
