“Tracing shadows where few fiddlers deign venture” (Irish Times), Eoghan Neff creates “astonishing ... black magic music ... eliciting unimagined sounds” (The Longford Leader). His pioneering avant-trad performances offer an ”audio goldmine" (Irish Music Magazine) that “could put a Michelin star chef to shame with its complex flavours” (Folk World). “Cinematic in scope” (Irish Times), his fiddle playing and music is heard across various feature films (by Oscar-winning and Cannes-winning directors), television series (as soundtrack and theme music), independent screen productions (from documentaries to animation), live interactive installations (from contemporary dance to archival silent films), and 20+ albums (from experimental fusion to free improvisation). His “extreme fiddling” (Folk World) combines prepared objects and motorised curios with an "astounding mastery of live looping" (Folk Radio UK). His onstage performances as a soloist, in duet, or as part of his 'unit' have garnered him a reputation among the international press as “a true Irish devil violinist" (Sächsische Zeitung) who "if he has sold his soul to the devil to play as he does, he has definitely got the better part of the deal!" (Fatea Magazine).

"Trazando sombras donde pocos violinistas se atreven a aventurar” (Irish Times) Eoghan Neff crea “una magia negra musical … alucinante … generando sonidos inimaginables” (The Longford Leader). Sus pioneras actuaciones vanguardistas ofrecen “una mina de oro auditiva” (Irish Music Magazine) que “podría avergonzar a un chef de estrella Michelin con sus complejos sabores” (Folk World). “De ámbito cinematográfico” (Irish Times), su violín forma parte: de bandas sonoras para largometrajes (de directores premiados por los Oscars y por Cannes), de series de televisión (como banda sonora y tema de cabecera), de producciones independientes (incluyendo documentales y animaciones), de instalaciones interactivas en directo (desde danza contemporánea hasta películas mudas de archivo) y de más de 20 álbumes musicales (abarcando estilos que van desde la fusión experimental hasta la libre improvisación). Como "violinista extremo" (Folk World) combina objetos preparados y curiosidades motorizadas con una "excepcional maestría del looping en directo" (Folk Radio UK). Sobre el escenario, como solista, en formato dúo, o con su ‘unit’, Eoghan es aclamado como “un auténtico diablo violinista irlandés” (Sächsische Zeitung). “Si ha vendido su alma al diablo para tocar como lo hace, definitivamente se ha quedado con la mejor parte del trato!” (Fatea Magazine)
