Oh I wrote that. Luke is on bouzouki, Stiofan O Broin on bodhran & darabuka (i know it's a djembe in the shot!), Niamh Varian Barry plays melody and harmony fiddle and Cathal King is playing the TG4 jingle on flute even though another flute player was used for the filming.
There are 5 version of the add which was filmed in one shot. You can see all five if you go to http://www.speers.ie/ to commercials, to Richard Chaney and then to TG4 session.

Anyone know who did the music for the recent TG4 ident / theme (sorry can't find a link to it) - piano accordion player, bouzouki, flute break?

The piano accordion player is Martin Tourish. The bouzouki player is Luke Ward. I think Martin wrote the music.
