The Irish have always known how to write a good tune, and from 'The banks of the Bann' to 'Paddy's green shamrock shore', this album presents a selection of beautiful, atmospheric Irish songs and cheery dances with a truly Celtic flavour. Superb instrumental playing from musicians who include the BBC's Folk Musician of the Year.
