O'Hagan's Set

Hey!
This is something i recorded very quickly using nothing else only my fiddle and a microphone on garageband. There are no effects, just some reverb and EQ on the fiddle. The reel is a donegal tune called Seamus Gibsons (I think) and ive played around with some bluegrass licks and chops. Hope you like it! I recommend using headphones or play it through speakers,
Id be greatful of a share :)

Ale is Dear

"Delightfully spirited and masterfully executed. The magical sounds of uilleann pipes and whistles weave their way harmoniously through an array of beautiful songs, lively tunes and soulful airs. Réalta’s second album is a sumptuous blend of traditional music from Ireland and further afield and is a testament to the creative talents of these young musicians!"
– John McSherry

Bill Malley’s - John McKenna’s

The Star Above The Garter - Eibhlín Ní Riordáin’s

The first reel was composed by Paddy Cronin and was recorded on A Tribute to Paddy Cronin: Master Irish Fiddler by Tom Dunne. ‘As a Thoiseach’ is a reel commonly played in Cape Breton and can be found in the Simon Fraser Collection (no. 140), which is comprised of tunes collected in the Highlands and Isles of Scotland between 1715 and 1745. Another commonly used title for the tune is ‘Keep it Up’. Fiddle player, Brendan Mulvihill, recorded it as ‘Be Off’ on Dear Old Erin’s Isle: Irish Traditional Music in America in 1992, which is where I heard the tune. The third reel was composed by flute player John Blessing (1913-1993) from near Mohill, Co. Leitrim. It is often associated with accordion player, Charlie Harris.

Réalta take a lively, exciting and respectful approach to Irish traditional music. 
Reared on a staple diet of The Bothy Band, Planxty and other such classics, this Belfast based band captures the timeless aspects of the tradition and presents it in its raw form – fresh and beautiful…

…Or as one reviewer put it, “Réalta carry on the Bothy Band tradition of taking tunes by the scruff of the neck and firing excitement through them like hot flames!”

Having toured Germany, Switzerland and Greece alongside traditional music legends Altan, Réalta have firmly established themselves on the international Irish music scene. Their music has taken them throughout Europe and on to New York, India and South Korea. Grab your dancing shoes and find out why as they perform a stirring mix of tunes on uilleann pipes, whistles, double bass, bouzouki and guitar.
