Welcome to Irish Balladeers
When growing up, I was surrounded by the music of many cultures, but I always had a deep fondness for Irish Music. Having roots in Cape Breton’s Irish community, I can trace my Irish lineage back to Kilkenny, Clare, Waterford and Wexford. Whilst researching my roots, I – alas – discovered Irish Folk Music. Alas, because it has become a consuming passion and interest for the last twenty years.
