Biography

Triskell, originally known as An Triskell, is a Celtic music group founded in France in 1970 by twin brothers Pol and Hervé Quefféléant. Born in 1953 in Brest, they discovered the Celtic harp through Alan Stivell in the late 1960s. The trio initially performed under the name An tri eostig, blending Breton folk with Andean flute music. Influenced by American folk and encouraged by Pete Seeger to explore their own heritage, they formed Triskell and adopted the triskelion symbol representing water, earth, and fire. In 1991, Triskell released the album L'Albatros Fou with Gilles Servat. The group's discography includes notable albums such as Rowen Tree (1995) and Harpes Celtiques (1996). Triskell collaborated extensively with artists like Alan Stivell, René Abjean, and Graeme Allwright, and their work was recognized by the Académie Charles-Cros.
