The Brothers Clague,
a Festival institution

Sam and Les are a father and son guitar duo from Clonakilty.  Les, originally from Liverpool, is an accomplished ragtime fingerpicking style guitarist and composer.  While crafting this artform gigging and busking in Europe and living in Antwerp, he later moved to Clonakilty to settle down and started to study Flamenco.

When Sam was 11, he started to steal his fathers chops and started shredding his first electric guitar busking on the streets with his Dad in Cork and on family camping trips in France.  His Jimmy Page obsession soon turned to Django Reinhardt and thus the Clague Brothers started to craft their own sound.
