Elaine O'Sullivan Interview (Accordion)

About this Episode

Teenage musicians, crackin the floor in a Drogheda pub and the Wednesday of the Fleadh; passing on the music; community and tunes in Hull, Leeds and the Coventry; the Holyhead night ferry; an English accent in border country, Crossmaglen sessions and the accordion as passport.

Elaine plays these tunes:

Two jigs - Kitty's Rambles (from Vincent Tighe) / Willie Coleman's
Two hornpipes: The Western / The Galway
Toss the Feathers / Grandpa Tommy's Ceili Band
O'Carolan's Draught / Flagstone of Memories (Vincent Broderick)
Apples in the Winter / Eddie Kelly's (from Hugie Gallagher)

We want the podcast to be free to listen to for as many people as possible. But without the support from at least some of you we couldn’t keep putting out an episode a week. That’s why we’re asking you to become a Patron (Saint) of the podcast. www.patreon.com/blarneypilgrims

So, for the price of a pint, or a half pint for that matter, you can help keep this show on the road and be safe in the knowledge you have a halo above your head.

For your good deed you will secure your place in traditional Irish music podcast heaven. But most importantly, you’ll have helped pay for the other 99% of listeners that don’t or can’t chip in.

And that, my friend, is a hell-of-a-nice thing to do.
