Milladoiro (English: "billionaire") is a traditional Celtic-Galician music group that records and performs music with roots in Galicia, Spain. Members of the group have also composed and recorded their own pieces, in the style of Galician music. Often compared to The Chieftains of Ireland—with whom they have shared the stage and recording studio—, Milladoiro is among the world's top Celtic music groups, and is one of the most successful traditional/folk groups to come out of the Iberian Peninsula, as a whole.[1]
Biography
In 1978, Rodrigo Romaní and Antón Seoane released an album named "Milladoiro", on which they were joined by Xosé V. Ferreirós, then credited as a guest artist. The album received a critic's award the same year.[2]
Ferreirós, along with Nando Casal and Moncho García Rei, from his group Faíscas do Xiabre, invited Romaní and Seoane as guests in their next album.
The fusion of the two groups, with the addition of the flautist Xosé A. Méndez and the violinist Laura Quintillán, constituted the foundation of Milladoiro, which swept the Galician musical scene of the 20th century.Script error: No such module "Unsubst".
To commemorate the 25th anniversary of the band, a compilation album, XXV, was released in 2005.
In 2006, Chris Thile covered their song "O Santo De Polvora" on his album How to Grow a Woman from the Ground.
