about

‘The Boys from Mayo’ was recorded along with ‘Kregg’s Pipes’ by Galway flautist Tom Morrison in New York in 1929. I learned the second tune at the home of flute player, Páraic Pheait Pheaits Ó Ceannabháin, in An Aird Mhóir, Connemara. Páraic learned it from his father, Peait Pheaits, who in turn got it from fiddler, Pat Folan, from An Caiseal. The setting of ‘Down the Broom’ came from a 1953 recording of Donegal fiddle player, Frank Cassidy.
