Chicago's Westside is having a full blown rap resurgence at the moment and at the forefront of this wave is Lucki Eck$, one of the most unique voices emerging from the Chicago scene.

Miss Hamilton - 18c English Guittar

Three Chicago Irish session tunes. The first is from the late Johnny McGreevey, who helped keep the music alive in Chicago between the heyday of O’Neill and the spectacular crop of young players that arose in the 1970s. The second and third tunes are found in O’Neill’s collection, and are still popular at Chicago sessions today.
Joseph Sobol: cittern

From the CD "Citternity: Celtic Cittern and Beyond..."
