I learned The Lost and Found from the the playing of Terry Bingham, who recorded it on his album Traditional Music from Doolin, Co. Clare. It was one of the first tunes I ever learned on the concertina and has been one of my favourites ever since. It is quite a common session tune too!

“The Boyne Hunt” is a classic session reel. I learned it from my good friend Stéphane during the Feakle Festival in 2013. It is usually played before “Rolling in the Ryegrass”.
Little Katie Taylor is a composition of Limerick flute player Paddy Taylor. I learned this reel from Terry Bingham during the Russell Memorial Weekend back in 2013 I believe.
“Christmas Eve” is a very popular session tune, and not only at Christmas time! This reel was composed by fiddle player Tommy Coen and I learned it from Hugh Healy & Colm Healy’s album “Macalla na hÓige”, which came out in 2004 and is full of great tunes.
