From Liz Carroll's newest album with John Doyle, called In Play. This is one of her own compositions, I believe, as are most of the other tunes on that album. This tune was on the requests list recently.

Octaves
I noticed that Liz moves up an octave on the repeated B part of the second time through the tune and stays up there for the rest of the set. I'll try posting that part asap.
