Carl Hession is from Galway, where the Hession family home in Salthill was a well known session venue. Carl's interest in classical piano playing developed alongside his attraction to traditional music and he later studied at University College Cork, where he was awarded a B.Mus. Degree. He continued his involvement with traditional music working with well known ceili band "The Shaskeen" and with Galway flute player Frankie Gavin.
