"One of the strongest unsigned discoveries in the genre in the last couple of years."
Manuel Liebler, METAL HAMMER
Triddana have come all the way from Argentina to deliver a mix of powerfully played metal, Celtic melodies and a stunning visual presence driven by bagpipes, kilts and relentless onstage energy!
The name of the band is a spelling variation of the Irish word "troiddeana" ("fights" or "battles"), and speaks of the bold spirit that drives them forward: carving their path as an independent act, they became regular visitors of European stages and fan favourites for metalheads around the world.
Their music is enchanting and spirit-lifting, every concert a celebration and an invitation to sing along with each melody. Maybe surprising for some that a bunch from Buenos Aires have made such a trademark from this fusion of styles...but Celtic blood has been present for long in their corner of the world, and they masterfully prove it in every gig and every song.

Tour 2023
In the summer of 2023, Triddana smashed again the European stages, and carried out their longest tour to date, across 6 countries and comprising 20 concerts, including many participations in summer festivals.
The band had several gigs in Germany and also returned to Austria and France, after the success of their gigs in 2022.
TTheir headliner performances in Triskell Celtic Festival and Bundan Celtic Festival became their first gigs ever in Italy, and they also stepped into the lands of Switzerland and Czech Republic for their first times ever..
Triddana reprised appearances in Ackerbrand Festival, Internationales Festival Maritim and Metal Escalation, all of which summoned them back after the enormous resonance of their concerts in previous tours! They appeared in Celtic Folk events, in mixed genre festivals and performing for their audience of die hard metal fans.

Discography
Ripe for Rebellion (2012)
“This debut for the band is nothing short of spectacular. May the flames of twilight forever burn in their impassioned heathen hearts!”
Rising From Within (2018)
”If you have already listened to Triddana, this album is precisely what is expected of this Argentine band. A lot of power, a great voice, and catchy melodies adorned in a greatly way by Pablo Allen’s bagpipes.” www.folk-metal.nl
Twelve Acoustic Pieces (2017)
“Ein Akustikalbum aufzunehmen war eine tolle Idee der Jungs von TRIDDANA! Ihre Mucke ist perfekt geeignet für so ein Experiment!”
The Power & The Will (2015)
“Thank the gods then for Triddana, the Argentinian power folk group who seem determined to teach the world that you don’t have to come from a country whose main exports are snow and beards to make some thunderous folk metal.”
Tour 2022
In 2022, Triddana returned to the European stages after the years of Covid crisis. A total of 18 gigs, including performances in Germany, Austria and France, billings as headliners or among the main acts and appeareances before crowds in the hundreds or even thousands!
During the tour, the band promoted songs from their upcoming album: in addition to "The Ground of the Fallen", the first single that saw the light in May, they came along with an EP under the arm: "Wasted Paradise" was released in physical format specially for the tour, and contained more new songs.
Among the highlighted gigs, were Erlensee Rockt, Metal United Festival, Rhön Rock, Internationales Festival Maritim (as headliners for their second edition in a row) and Ackerbrand Festival in Germany, Festival en Gévaudan (France, also as headliner) and Metal Escalation (Austria).
