Nightnoise

Nightnoise began as a collaboration between American fiddler Billy Oskay, and Irish singer/guitarist Mícheál Ó Domhnaill. Together, they released the album "Nightnoise" in 1984. Three years later, Mícheál's sister, Irish pianist/vocalist Tríona Ní Dhomhnaill, who had previously collaborated with her brother in Skara Brae, Relativity, and The Bothy Band; and Irish-American flutist Brian Dunning joined the original duo. Nightnoise, the band, was born.

The quartet's first album was "Something of Time", released by Windham Hill in 1987. It would be followed by "At the End of the Evening" (1988), "The Parting Tide" (1990), and the compilation "A Windham Hill Retrospective" (1992). This would be the last album to feature Oskay's playing and writing, as he chose to leave the band.
