Happy St. Patrick's Day!


Happy St. Patrick's Day, everyone!

Titles: Down the Back Lane & The Bride's Favourite

Performers: Unknown. Part of a LiveTrad.com web broadcast from the Ferryman Pub in Dublin.

Culture: Ireland

Instrumentation: Fiddle, pennywhistle, guitar, bodhran

I wanted to post this in honor of the holiday.  The atmosphere in Irish pubs is so warm - there's always live music, and it's always so informal.  I think that is what makes Irish music what it is - it's just as much the music as it is the atmosphere.
