Danny Diamond and David Munnelly play two traditional Irish reels, Dr Glibert and The Queen of May. 

There's a twist: instead of playing them one-after-another in the usual fashion, we blended the melodies together into something new...

Recorded November 2015 in The Cobblestone, Dublin.

‘Knight, Briggs et al’ has been set up to house archival recordings of the folk and traditional music associated with the Knight family of Surrey and the Briggs family of Newcastle upon Tyne.

The collection includes music from the Knight Brothers (Simon, Chris, Andrew & Patrick) and the Briggs Sisters (Anna, Lesley, Astrid, Gael, Stephanie & Claire), amongst others.

Furthermore, the archive serves as a platform for John Knight's culturally priceless 1970's and 80's folk club, tune session and kitchen table recordings, which are slowly but surely being digitised by his descendants.
