Brian The Tutor/The Chicago Conneelly/Joanie’s on the Move
These three reels are dedicated to three great traditional musicians living in the USA. Brian, of course, is Brian Conway who has taught fiddle to so many incredible musicians in New York. Brian is also a fantastic soloist and is a major part of Irish Music in America for decades. Pauline Conneelly is a brilliant banjo player and comes from a family of equally brilliant musicians – Kathleen, Bernie and Mick. The Joanie I am talking about is the fantastic Joanie Madden. Joanie and her group ‘Cherish the Ladies’ have been at the top since the 1990s and have achieved everything that has to be achieved. Joanie herself is a top class musician with Galway connections.
