Siblings Mollie and Mamie McGinn, and lifelong friend Orlaith Forsythe formed Dea Matrona in Belfast in 2018, armed with their talent, a dream, and an ear for a great hook. The band’s name means ‘divine mother goddess’ in Celtic mythology, and you can hear the influence of Debbie Harry, Stevie Nicks, Led Zeppelin (plus a bit of Joni Mitchell) in their songs, that take the listener back in time to the golden age of rock ‘n’ roll, complete with a shredding guitar solo, and dripping with infectious melodies.
