Find out about the six finalists who have made it through to the final stage of this year's competition, which will take place on Friday 4 December.

Cinnte are a group of friends (and brothers) who have played Irish traditional music together for a few years at fleadhs and festivals just for the fun.
They decided to form a band late in 2008 to launch a local cultural festival and since then they have added a sixth member, appeared on Irish national television and are preparing to record their first album.
