 Tír na nÓg are an Irish folk band formed in Dublin, Ireland, in 1969 by Leo O'Kelly and Sonny Condell. They are often considered as one of the first progressive folk bands with other artists like Nick Drake or group like Pentangle. Their music mainly consists of their own compositions, based on strong Celtic roots and typically featuring intricate acoustic guitar playing and close harmony singing. In their early years, they toured the folk clubs of the United Kingdoms or internationally as a support act for several rock bands. Today, they regulary give concerts, especially in Ireland.
From 1971 to 1973, Tír na nÓg made three studio albums which were highly acclaimed by critics but didn't receive a big commercial success. The 1975 compilation The Camera & the Song, containing two tracks that they performed for the eponymous BBC TV show, was the only witness of their live performance for twenty-five years until their first live album was released in 2000. A compilation of some of their live tracks recorded between 1972 and 1973 for the John Peel's radio show, was also published one year later.
