about

Gerry O'Connor (Fiddle) Gabriel McArdle (Songs and Concertina) & Martin Quinn ( Accordion)

Musicians of the area in recent years have become more acutely appreciative of this song, music and dance body, as they develop their repertoires with melody and imagery which was once so familiar to their predecessors.

In this album, Gerry, Martin and Gabriel present a celebration of carefully chosen elements of the South Ulster heritage. The recording invokes the charm and ease of past aesthetic geniuses whose sounds still today have challenge, meaning and artistic satisfaction for audiences in the 21st century.
