I learned “Young Tom Ennis” from a session in McGann’s Pub with Yvonne Casey and Terry Bingham. This jig was recorded on the wonderful album “In Good Company” by Kevin Crawford, on which he plays this particular tune with James Cullinan, the great fiddle player who lives in Doolin also. They follow “Young Tom Ennis” with another lovely jig called “The Mouse in the Mug” and it is quite a common set around Doolin now, which I enjoy playing with my friend Adrian McMahon, a flute player from Kilfenora.

Hi Isobel! Thank you so much for your comment and sorry for the delay in my reply… The tune at the end of the video is “The Collier’s” (https://tunesfromdoolin.com/colliers-the/), it’s a snippet taken from the album “Aughavinna” I recorded with my friend JB Samzun on fiddle
