Elish is from the musical O’Connor family in Dundalk, Co.Louth. She carries a rich legacy of tunes and a distinctive and highly personalised style. This album is a celebration of many musical friendships she has made in her life, playing traditional tunes. The tunes were recorded in a series of house sessions that started around the kitchen table and ended up around the mixing desk! It features some old friends and new neighbours living in south Co.Galway who are among the finest musicians playing Irish music today.
