Sitting down to record this, I felt like surely I must have made a video of this classic at some point. But apparently not! Indeed, in all my years of trying to earn my trad music bona fides, I have tended to only release my more obscure repertoire.

But much as I love a song discovery from a dusty book or scratchy recording, I've come to appreciate these well-worn pub classics a great deal over the last few years. I can't pinpoint who or where I learned it from - it's so in the ether of Irish-American culture that I'm probably pulling inspiration as much from Tommy Makem as from one of the many friends and acquaintances I've heard sing it on a St. Paddy's Day. Hope you all enjoy this rendition!

Oh, also...it's New Guitar Week! I'm now an Official Jewitt Guitars Ambassador. More on that later! Check out Jeff's page to learn more: ‪@JewittGuitars‬
