He plays the fiddle, a traditional Irish flute called the low whistle, the mandolin and also adds backing vocals to the mix. Their debut album, “Good to be Alive”, is an amalgamation of their individual musical and cultural backgrounds. “I Need to Sleep Tonight” is their first single and is currently playlisted on twelve radio stations countrywide. Apart from the interesting mix of acoustic instruments,the sound of Beukes and Delaney is the beautiful blend of vocal harmonies that keeps audiences transfixed.
