Memories – Last Drinks at Glenrowan Recording Session             

A few years back when we were recording Last Drinks at Glenrowan for our third album Nuevo Retro, with Jim Finn, he suggested I go listen to some Uilleann pipe music for some inspiration … which I did. Step1, though was to find out what they are!

Cheers,
