 Michael "Blackie" O' Connell and Karol Lynch
Blackie and Karol are the Young Guns of Irish traditional music in Clare.
Their sessions are renowned for their musical ferocity and there is no let-up from start to finish.
In the shop,they are the most talked-about and praised musicians from the gig circuit,especially with young unattached female tourists.
Apart from this sexual allure,they are two of the most passionate and dedicated musicians I know and genuine souls to boot.
Good luck with it lads!
