BIOG (courtesy of the Artist's site) :
Enda Seery from Co. Westmeath in the heart of Ireland, is one of Ireland’s finest whistle, flute players and composers. Enda’s critically acclaimed debut album The Winding Clock was released in 2010 and sees Enda sprinkle his own compositions amongst other well know session tunes.

Enda grew up with music, song and dance from an early age with his musical siblings Ciarán (button accordion), Siobhán (flute) and Pádraig (fiddle) all gaining a reputation for their musicality and tradition as part of The Mona Dubh Céili Band. Enda as the youngest in the family could only watch on but it wasn’t long before he was to make his own mark in the traditional music scene in Ireland.

Enda has also been greatly influenced by the likes of the late John Joe Gannon, a great button accordion player originally from Ballybrown, Streamstown, a stones throw away from Enda's home. Indeed there is a great tradition of accordion playing around that area with Davy Joe Fallon still going strong with his céíli band 'Davy Joe and Carousel'. Enda sometimes fills in as keyboard player with the band. With regards to whistle and flute players, Enda has been greatly influenced by Mary Bergin, Kevin Crawford and Sean Ryan.

As a teenager and moving into his mid-twenties: Enda was a consistent achiever at Fleadh Cheoil competitions at Provincial and All-Ireland level. He has multiple whistle titles at Provincial level and in 2011, he was honoured with a 3rd place for his hornpipe composition Langton’s of Kilkenny at Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann in Cavan. Indeed Enda’s compositions are now being recorded by other artists with his cousin All-Ireland Champion button accordion player Colin Nea recently recording Enda’s composition Sam’s Delight (reel) for his new album Between the Jigs and the Reels. Colin lives in Kilfenora, Co. Clare.

The Winding Clock album with Enda on whistles and keyboard, John Byrne on guitar and Colin Hogg on bodhrán along with a guest appearance from Ciarán,Siobhán and Pádraig Seery has received great reviews from critics and musicians alike. Much praise has been given to Enda’s own traditional compositions. Eileen McCabe of The Irish Music Magazine notes that ‘Enda includes many of his own tunes and they intertwine seamlessly with the more traditional with regards to the quality of workmanship’. Tony Lawless of www.tradconnect.com describes Enda’a playing as having ‘an earthy, old school traditional feel, delivered in a precise and punchy way that is quite entrancing’. Zac Leger, musician and reviewer for www.folkworks.org notes that The Winding Clock is ‘an album worth losing time over, again and again’. As a result of the success of The Winding Clock, Enda's music now features on Abarta Audio Guides, a website where one can download audio guides for cultural and historical heritage sites around Ireland.
