I received a box of Rory's new cd on 14th May, 2019 by a proxy messenger, Therese McInerney. She travelled via The Gulf to Bejing and back home here in possession of this most beautiful concertina release.

We've had lots of murmurings about the impending release of this album and eventually it's here and has been worth the wait.

Rory, from west Clare ,All-Ireland Concertina champion,Céilí Band Champion with The Awbeg and son of the renowned player, Tommy of Tommy Mc Mahon(briseann an dúchas trí shúilleaibh an chait )and Bernard O' Sullivan fame. Global traveller and Scarlet Pimpernel qualities as I always hear of his presence in this area after the event so looking forward to his return from China for its official launch at the Munster Fleadh here in July.

Very thankful to Rory for getting it here for the Fleadh Nua at the end of the month.

Go mbeidh and t-ádh leat leis an gceol binn álainn seo!
