 UCC Trad Soc
This cd is a show case for the talents of Irish Traditional Musicians in the University College Cork Trad Society.
It is an important tool in promoting Irish Traditional Music in UCC and indeed the whole of Cork city.
Jack Talty is the Clare connection and a fine concertina player of the future.

this is Michael and June's second release.They play under the name"Draíocht"
and this title is so apt as the alchemy of their combined talent is truly spell-binding.

 Martin O' Brien
Martin O' Brien is a young concertina player from East Clare and this is his first release of concertina music.
His album is eminently listenable-to and bodes well for future releases.
I'm not sure does he derive from an genetic pool of great musicians but he definitely is connected to the musical oasis of great East Clare talent.
Adh mór le do chuid saothair,Martin!

 Breda Keville
A plethora of cd launches herald the start of the Willie Clancy Week and 2007 is no different.
The gem of 2006 is undoubtedly the release of fiddle music by Headford girl,Breda Keville.
Paddy Fahy tunes feature prominently and she is silkily assisted by her concertina(and more)playing sister,Claire,Liam Lewis on fiddle and Terence O' Reilly on guitar.
Breda also possesses a singing voice that the Gods would envy .Forza Headford!
