John Francis Flynn takes traditional Irish music and tunage as a starting point but takes this base in a very different direction. Rather than distilling it down to its simple easy to understand essence for the masses, he reinvents many traditional songs, taking them off in very different directions. Commendable.

He makes use of more modern instrumentation, within a traditional cannon, and has turned me into a big fan. The deep rich tones of his voice the glue that ties together these many day trips away from the M1 that is 'traditional Irish music'. O.J.
