Dancers: Stephanie Dufresne & Sophie Hutchinson Uilleann pipes: Blackie O’Connell Fiddle: Eoghan Neff
“ Being half-Irish and half-American I think I’m always trying to figure out where I fit in the world, and the traditional songs Blackie plays, connect me with Irish culture in a way that goes beyond the verbal, rational or logical. I think trad music voices a keening we cannot articulate; the soundtrack to generations of emigration and return. Who we are as the next generation of Irish artists, is still in flux. How can we pay homage to what has come before, while also setting the tone for what is to come?”
