Hi Katie!
Love the playing!
I have a request for the second tune The flood on the road to glenties, we have recorded it with my album, and I´d love to get more info about it as it´s not in the irish music archive´s print catalogue. Is it a Shottish tune do you think? Is it traditional, or would you have any ideas or traces when it comes to composer?

Flood on the Road to Glenties is a tune composed by the renound fiddle player, Jimmy McHugh. Jimmy was from Tyrone and lived his former years in Glasgow Scotland.

Hope this helps

Katie
