Session Obsession

This week don’t miss two of Ireland’s finest musicians Jackie Daly on accordion and Matt Cranitch on fiddle. Here’s info on them both:

“For many years, Jackie Daly (accordion) and Matt Cranitch (fiddle) have been the foremost interpreters of the rich Sliabh Luachra tradition of instrumental music, which is an area that borders on the northwest of Cork and east of Kerry, Ireland.  Jackie Daly has been called, “probably the best accordionist in all of Ireland.”  Matt Cranitch is not only a renowned fiddle-player and teacher but has presented lectures, master classes and workshops on various aspects of Irish music, with a Phd from the University of Limerick for his study for fiddle- playing traditions in this region.  Together, the vibrant music that they create displays an additional collaborative dimension.  They have traveled extensively throughout many countries performing individually, groups and together.”
