Paddy Cronin (6 July 1925 – 15 March 2014) was born in Ré Buí, Gneeveguilla, County Kerry. He was first taught by Padraig O'Keefe and gained significant notoriety as a youngster in the area.
In 1949 he was recorded by Seamus Ennis for Radió Éireann. These recordings are public on the RTE archives.

Shortly after making these recordings, he left Ireland and emigrated to Boston, USA. He lived for a time in New York and Chicago as well but finally settled in West Roxbury with his wife Connie.

During the 1950s, he continued to record, becoming very well known through the 78rpm discs he recorded on Copley records, including several sides with the great North Clare fluter Frank Neylon.

later he recorded several LPs, including: "Music In The Glen", for the Fleetwood label, "The House In The Glen" for Talcon, "The Rakish Paddy" LP with Fiddler Records of Seattle, and in 1977 released "Kerry's Own: Paddy Cronin" with Outlet records of Belfast.

In 2007 Paddy was awarded the prestigious Gradam Ceoil, or Lifetime Achievement Award in honor of his contribution to Irish Traditional Music over his life.

These recordings stick out to me personally because they mark a point in Paddy's life when he was extremely influenced by Sligo musicians. Many of the sets below, including the first, were initially recorded by musicians like James Morrison and Michael Coleman. 

It's unbelievable music. Hope you enjoy.

You Give Me Something Piano Preview

Acoustic cover of James Morrison's classic song, 'You Give Me Something'. A song I regularly perform live at weddings, all thanks to D&T, whose wedding I played back in 2017 - they requested this song and it's been a mainstay in my set lists ever since.

BIO:

Hey, my name’s Joe! 

I’m an award-winning wedding musician from Cambridgeshire. I have the best job ever – putting smiles on people’s faces with the art of music. 

I understand that choosing entertainment for your event can potentially be an overwhelming task - there’s a lot out there to choose from, so I’m here to tell you a little bit about what makes me different.

For over a decade, I have worked full-time in the wedding & events entertainment industry. Having performed at hundreds of weddings alone, you can rest assured that I will deliver an unforgettable show with professional service.

My rhythmic guitar playing and diverse vocals are supported by the beat of a bass drum, creating a much larger sound than most soloists. My repertoire is packed with a fresh mix of modern and classic hits, guaranteeing that your guests will be on the floor all night long! Just check out some of my videos and you’ll get the idea!

What’s more is with every evening booking, you will also receive my complimentary DJ service to ensure the music stays flowing all night long.

Anyway - enough about me! I’d absolutely love to hear more about your big day, so why not get in touch? Tell me your story!

LYRICS:

You onlyto stay with me in the morning
You only hold me when I sleep
I was meant to tread the water
Now I've gotten in too deep
For every piece of me that wants you
Another piece backs away

'Cause you give me something
That makes me scared, alright
This could be nothing
But I'm willing to give it a try
Please give me something
'Cause someday I might know my heart

You only waited up for hours
Just to spend a little time alone with me
And I can say I've never bought you flowers
I can't work out what they mean
I never thought that I'd love someone
That was someone else's dream

'Cause you give me something
That makes me scared, alright
This could be nothing
But I'm willing to give it a try
Please give me something
'Cause someday I might call you from my heart

But it might me a second too late
And the words that I could never say
Gonna come out anyway

'Cause you give me something
That makes me scared, alright
This could be nothing
But I'm willing to give it a try
Please give me something
'Cause you give me something
That makes me scared, alright
This could be nothing
But I'm willing to give it a try
Please give me something
'Cause someday I might know my heart
Know my heart, know my heart, know my heart

You Give Me Something
