LISTEN: This version of Ed Sheeran’s Castle on the Hill in Irish is excellent

Paul Moore

Go hiontach.

There’s definitely a strong Irish flavour on Ed Sheeran’s new album because the Lego House and Thinking Out Loud singer has admitted that he’s recorded two songs that were inspired by his recent visits to Galway and Wexford.

While we’re waiting on Ed to release further details about his search for some Irish dancers to appear in the video for Galway Girl, this cover of his most recent tune, Castle on the Hill, by the very talented band Seo Linn will make the wait seem a little shorter.

The lads all met each through the work that they do with Coláiste Lurgan and it’s clear that they’ve a huge passion for the Irish language.

This is excellent.
