about

My good friend Mick Mulvey who is a fine exponent of the flute, is very fond of telling stories and chatting. He lives on the Elphin side of Carrick-on-Shannon in a townland called Killomud.
The second tune is about the many long drives and bus journeys I’ve had returning home. As the cliché goes – there’s no place like home.
A taisceáin, according to Gearóid Ó’Dúinnín, is a small bit of turf. Gearóid is a guitar player, singer and artist who hails from Cúl Aodh. He says he first heard it from Mike Walsh who kept giving out to Gearóíd’s dog Teddy for jumping up on him calling him a “dirty taisceáin”. So, there you go.
