Antoine Pihier
Antoine began learning the whistle at the age of 13, before honing his skills during the Irish sessions in Rennes, where he spent nearly 15 years. He spent his evenings wandering from pub to pub, playing and sessioning with the cream of young Dublin musicians. At the age of 21, Antoine joined the Centre de Formation des Musiciens Intervenants (CFMI), where he was able to explore other musical styles such as gypsy jazz, Brazilian choro, classical, Eastern European music, and musette jazz. With this new experience, he launched the Flutalor project, in which he was the sole soloist. At 24, he was admitted to the conservatory of Rennes and obtained his Diplôme d'Études Musicales (DEM) in the department of traditional music. It was there that he further strengthened his connection with Irish music, which he continued to develop until the creation of the Moher group. Today, he is proud to continue to keep this music alive through his performances and personal projects.

Konan Goré
Konan has been immersed in music since his early childhood, surrounded by musicians in his family. At the age of 5, he began playing the violin, an instrument he has never parted with since. Taking his first steps on stage by filling in for his uncles and aunts in their various groups, he joined several formations to animate Fest-noz, Irish sessions, and private events. He also took advantage of these opportunities to participate in solo and duo competitions, notably winning the Kan ar Bobl in 2017. Now based in Rennes, Konan specializes in traditional Irish music, drawing inspiration from renowned figures such as Liz Carroll and Winifred Horan, as well as from the new encounters he makes in the music scene. In addition to Moher, you can also find Konan in other groups such as Murmur's Dawn for Irish music or Talamh and Oversea for folk music.
