about

Irish airs reimagined - written by Neil Martin, played by Ruth McGinley. The digital album includes a PDF of the album liner noters.

After a few well-received television and radio broadcasts, we felt that we should collaborate on an album celebrating some of the glorious song-airs of this island.

Two things that unite the melodies here are their exquisite beauty and their unmistakeable Irishness.
