Just finished on BBC2 Northern Ireland is a series called "Blas Ceoil" which features music from Beoga, Julie Fowlis, Barry Kerr, Cathal Hayden and many others. A lot of contemporary music (non-trad) is also featured, but you can pick and choose what you want to watch by following the link belowand clicking on the biographies section. http://www.bbc.co.uk/northernireland/irish/blas/blasceoil/
Also on the site are the first 3 programmes in the Open House sessions series which are being broadcast on Radio Ulster stating tomorrow night (27th December). These were filmed at the time of recording but can only be viewed online.
That should keep you all out of trouble for a while.....

Re: Blas Ceoil
I now know who Beoga are. They used to sit listening to us in Portglenone telling us how great we were and refusing to play.
Now you know why I hate false modesty. I could understand the bodhran player, but the rest of them?
