The team at Coláiste Lurgan has gained a reputation over the past few years for their take on modern music, and they’ve done it again with their latest translation of Daft Punk’s ‘Get Lucky’.

Having been online less than 24 hours, the song already received more than 10 thousand hits on Youtube so far, as wellas media coverage on both Joe.ie and TheJournal.ie.

The song has been named ‘An t-Ádh ‘Nocht’ on TGLurgan’s Youtube channel, with the description “Leagan breá d’amhrán ‘Get Lucky’ le Daift Ponc (Daft Punk) á chanadh ag Ian Mac Gabhann agus Megan Ní Dhonncha” running below it. The video can be viewed on www.gaelport.com.

Coláiste Lurgan, based in Indreabhán, Conamara, has risen to fame in recent years as a new-aged Irish language college, and each course now has a project run by both staff and students.

The summer college gained massive coverage last year with the release of ‘Some Nights’ by FUN as Gaeilge, which was broadcast on national radio. From all this work, the band ‘Seo Linn’ has stemmed, with a growing popularity in the Irish language community.
