Funny how I set out to write up 101 of my favorite #TradIrish tunes and it's taking some time to get past 15. The great thing is I'll keep plugging away.

Even though most of the music is from Sliabh Lauchra, I'm in no rush.*

Here's the thread from the beginning.

11) Gloaming 2

This Irish band was formed of already established artists. Seasoned veterans Martin Hayes, Dennis Cahill and Iarla Ó Lionaird (vocals). Trad "experimentalist" Coimhín Ó Raghallaigh on the hardinger fiddle and Thomas Bartlett, aka Doveman on piano.

This #TradIrish album is often haunting, often conveys a strong emotional sense of the blue note.

Track Cucanandy conveys much with the line "I wouldn't trade my pipes for all the wives in town".

Been here two days now and am getting a sense of the space. It reminds me of birdsite around 2009, when people had more conversations and less anger.
A few things about me. My interests include all sorts of music: #jazz #classicrock #funk #randb #soul #tradirish #blues #folk. I’m a weather nerd, fascinated by #tornadoes.
