Kevin Griffin

To those who don't know him, i think it's worth a listening :-) The best trad banjo player i've hear so far!

Re: Kevin Griffin

Thanks Charlie - three great reels here. I recognised the last two (Kerry/Green Fields of Rossbeigh and the Killavil) but not sure about the first. Maybe someone out there can help.

Re: Kevin Griffin

Does Kevin play at sessions around Clare?

Re: Kevin Griffin

He often plays in McGann's, Doolin.

Re: Kevin Griffin

"Down in Doolin" and "Across the Pond" are two of his recordings and are among my favorite recordings. He often plays with a fabulous fiddler by the name of Yvonne Casey. Both of them regularly play in the pubs in Doolin and at least for me they are a "must hear" on my trips to Ireland.

Re: Kevin Griffin

Ah, that's right, Yvonne plays Arthur Daley's on one of those CDs I think. Good stuff.
And I really like Kevin's Humours of Castlefin as well.

Re: Kevin Griffin

He's also on both of the Ceili Bandits CDs.

Re: Kevin Griffin

One of those CDs, I have the first copy sold, signed by Eoin O'Neill, so it says. :-)
