For the past 18 years I have traveled around Ireland around the time of my birthday to sessions that I wouldn't usually get to visit. This year I enjoyed music in Cork, Doolin, Carlow and for the first time ever in the 18 years of traveling for tunes, in my home town of Drogheda! This recording gives you a taste of the exceptional music I have heard during my travels over this remarkable week.
