"These musicians, although French, are putting a new slant on Irish music. Their music is at once steeped in the Irish tradition, while still being contempory and Doolin' offer us music that is powerful, full of character. Their songs propel us into the Irish spirit ; instrumentals are full of sensitivity and emotion and make us forget the harsh reality of this world." - TRAD MAGAZINE

"The up-and-coming Irish music group! A sextet (guitar, bodhran, violin, whistles, accordion, bass) from the Toulouse/Castres region. Almost the same formation (and the same spirit) as Lunasa, with the pipes replaced by the accordion. This group, formed around the brothers Josselin and Jacob Fournel, whose disc by their previous group Trio Gan Ainm won plenty of praise here, combines finesse and energy in the Irish manner but adding their "French touch", adjusted by the well-known Northern-Ireland flutist Desi Wilkinson : original compositions, jazzy improvisation, and a special mention for the writing of Polkamix! (...) A group to look out for, one that may signal the renaissance of Irish music in France..." - Jean-Pascal Assailly - TRAD MAGAZINE

" (...) The session was joined by a couple of brothers : Jacob and Joe, who play with one of the bands featured at the festival - Doolin' - they were brilliant musicians and really lifted the session. (...) The band Doolin' was on after us, and I was really impressed." - From the Niamh Parsons's blog
