I've been fingerpicking the 🎸 guitar for over 50 years. I'm 71½ now, and if I keep at it, I hope to one day be half as good as Muireann. You don't need to play the guitar yourself to realise how good this young lady is, but it helps. Her singing is excellent as well. I wish her a successful future in music; she richly deserves it.
I agree. 54 here and still love fingerstyle acoustic folk guitar. I can only imagine the thousands of hours this lady has put in to get this good. Nobody is naturally good, it's all just down to practice and the sheer will to want to play something.

I completely agree with you Leo. I am 64 and much younger than you! Her finger picking is so powerful that I am trying to copy it. So good to see someone so young doing this. Thank you.
This amazing young lady fulfilled a dream for me...I had planned to take my wife to Ireland (both are Irish), but unfortunately my wife passed away, and I am disabled. Muireann has brought Irerland to me and I am forever grateful. Thank you, Muireann!
We all know that older, grizzled rock fans LOVE this! So let's hope more YOUNG folks her age are touched by these performances; and take up the guitar and sing out like this.
She would make you sick with her talent. “Picked it up again during lockdown”. I could pick it up for 20 years and still be nowhere. She reincarnates the old country blues songs and makes them her own so they sound fresh. Well done to dad and best wishes for long and happy career .
Fantastic set. Full-blown crazy good. Not just the guitar playing, and not just the fabulous voice, but also the once-in-10-generations passion and DNA for a music that, thanks to people like her, will never, ever die. Thank you! Say Amen, somebody.
This young lady is amazing! Thank goodness for younger-generation musicians who are musically descerning enough to understand the importance of early blues and other music. Bravo!
When I lived in New Orleans in the '70s I caught a lot of living legends. Muddy Waters, Lightnin' Hopkins, Furry Lewis, Roosevelt Sykes, Robert Pete Williams opening for John Lee Hooker at Tipitina's, Tuts Washington and more. This was back when Professor Longhair played regularly at Tipitina's. I have not been this excited about a new blues artist in a long time. This young girl's CD I have been playing all the time. Hardly play anything else since I received the album just before Christmas. Such sweet, clean playing and that lovely voice. I am glad to see that her stuff is being posted on various blues pages on Social Media. At 72 I am bowled over by this amazingly talented young lady. I used to think that the best interpretation of Blind Blake's riffs were done by Leon Redbone. Now I think differently. What is great is how Ms. Bradley can play in the style of these classic blues guitarists while at the same time making them her own. A very rare talent in such a young, exceptionally talented girl. Fantastic!
Her acoustic guitar playing is so unique for this time that I'm reminded of JoAnn Kelly, the great English blues singer, and from a New Orleans talent perspective, James Booker. Now I wouldn't wish Booker's life on her, but she has similar talent. Much different, very humble, even awed by the attention she is getting. Would love to see her perform at in the States, maybe at a festival in Clarksdale, MS or the New Orleans Jazzfest - on the Lagniappe stage.
Hello from the US. That girl is going places. Her technique is soooo clean and precise, remarkable for that genre. And the vocals follow the style without mimicry. As much as her music is an homage, she is not just resurrecting these songs, she makes them new.
It's amazing to me that she's 16 now, picked up the guitar at age 9 and took a few years off to do martial arts. She has an incredibly high music IQ to accomplish this level of guitar playing in such a short amount of time. She is just scratching the surface of her talents. Also as my family heritage is from Donegal I'm particularly proud of you representing Ireland.
I've been a fan for the few years she's been on youtube. Her playing is so right and righteous!! But it is her voice that just knocks me out! Keep doing it just as you choose to--don't let anyone pressure you. We fans will always be happy to hear your work. I went to Newport Folk Festivals in the '60's and NO one got to me like you do. Blues live on in voices like yours. Thank you.
I just learned of you through Vintage Guitar Magazine. I am floored. I'm 71 and struggle mightily to play this stuff, you make it look so easy and we all know it isn't. Absolutely wonderful.
She is gem . True to the music pure voice , clean accurate picking . I've been loving and picking acoustic blues for decades and I take off my hat to her accomplishments .
Reverend Davis would be so proud to hear a young Irish girl performing his songs flawlessly in the year 2024. The Reverend's students in Harlem during the 1960's are still playing and influencing thousands of pickers. Musicologists and pickers Stefan Grossman and Rory Block, and Jorma Kaukonen of Hot Tuna fame are among these. This music requires dedication and persistence to master, and few have achieved Ms Bradley's level of mastery.
Muireann, what a talent you are. A class act. Not only through the truly brilliant guitaring and singing but the way you conduct yourself. Your father must be incredibly proud of you. You make me so proud of my Irish roots. Your respect of old time music shows what a natural talent you are. You've made my 2024 already and its only January. You have a long and successful career ahead of you and I'm glad I got in relatively early. Well done you! Dave D
I read about this young lady in Vintage Guitar Magazine. It is unusual for the magazine to feature such a young musician. My interest was peaked when I read that she loved and played a lot of the old blues stuff of the old greats of the MS Delta, the area in the USA where I grew up. Then I listened to some of her music. What a talent! Then I listened to some more of her music. I am a fan, and I am blown away by how true she is to the old stuff. Keep performing, young lady, and I will certainly be listening.
I just recently found this young lady and her version of When The Levee Breaks moved me to tears……it was almost so beautiful and heartfelt I couldn’t take it in. I had to hit the pause button. When someone moves you like that you have to take notice and tip your hat to her talent and her heart. Wow is all I can say! God bless you and I hope you continue to sing the songs you want to sing. And the guitar playing….unless you have tried to do this you have no idea how hard it is to pull off and sing at the same time. Please come to America if you haven’t already!!!!
Muireann, is absolutely and utterly outstandingly brilliant and she’s going to the very very top. And she’s such a lovely person and her Dad seems nice too. I absolutely Love ❤️ ❤❤❤ her music, and her too.
I bet Jimmy Page and Robert Plant would love this, particularly as they're both heavily influenced by the blues... Whatever happens, an absolutely phenomenal talent, no doubt destined for super-stardom! 💖🎶
Like to add an “aye” to the voice comments I’ve read here. Her playing is wonderful, obviously …though I’m not qualified to speak to her technical proficiency…but her voice and singing could melt butter! So natural and real. Bravo!
Very gifted performer.Hard not to sound contrived/artificial playing this music.She is herself, yet have caught the the spirit of this tradition.Dom Martin, Dea Matrona and now Muireann Bradley, Irish musicians reviving this musical tradition.
I’ve been loving and playing this guitar style since the early sixties. But Muireann plays better than I do. With all my heart I wish her luck! Brought tears to my eyes.
Delightful. Well done dad, my two girls have grow up with me trying to play these old country blues tunes, but you must be so proud and exited for her now. All the best for 2024 and the future
Great interview with Muireann and what a justifiable proud Dad she has ! Lotsa fun in that household ! The very best of Ireland on the World Stage, putting good "Cheer" into the days ! Blessings !
@@AndyUK-Corrival I always listen to Stones in my passway and Terraplane Blues (Clapton's version).... He was my teacher meaning I would sit there for hours try to play like him:) The Unplugged Version is my dad's favorite Album by Clapton. I was only 11 when I heard Malted Milk and Before you accuse me by Eric. A year later I found Crossroads by Robert Johnson. Changed my look on Modern Music
Young lady, you are coordially invited to visit and spend some time here in Louisiana and Mississippi to walk on the land and experience the cultures that birthed and nutured the blues. We can promise some good eats, too! Take a listen to the blues passed through Cajun culture: Tab Benoit and Sonny Landreth. In the meantime: Slainté!!
It's good to see the youngsters keeping this wonderful musical form alive! I saw Rev. Gary Davis many times in the '60s. This young lady has some good chops! all she needs is some seasoning. It's a little weird to hear a child singing bawdy blues, or, really, any blues at all, as the blues were born of no-hope destitution and were a way for those folks to temporarily step outside their troubles. That said, when she grows up and gets some real life experience, I hope it will inform her singing and playing. I hope to hear much more of her in the future.
That stage-fright thing is VERY real and can be debilitating. Keep up the good work young lady and Dad…you must be really proud of your girl. Keep on playing, both of you. Thank you for sharing what you do with us.
J' aime beaucoup l' énergie dégagée par le chant de cette jeune fille et son jeu de guitare me parait digne de mississippi John Hurt!! merci pour tout ca !!
When ever i watch muireann work her guitar it always makes me giggle. To see a young girl with so much talent just fries my brain. Surely it cant be real.
My first thought was Rory Gallagher, when he would do his acoustic blues stuff. Fantastic. I'm guessing she knows a little something about Rory. :) I haven't listened to this full clip yet, I listened to a song that was posted on FB on one of those 'suggested for you' posts. Getting ready to give this a listen...
O my gosh, there must be something in the water there at Ballyboffey. This girl sounds like she's from the Mississippi delta when she's playing! Edit: I wish old Bill Collings was still alive to hear what his guitars sound like in Muireann's hands!
One good thing Covid has done....brought Muireann to the limelight....I just saw her on Jools Holland....the best blues to come out of Ireland since Rory Gallagher!! ❤ btw Ballyshannon is a beautiful wee town.
I hear all the great American Blues singers in her voice. As for that guitar plucking, well that is pure perfection in itself. What a God Given Talent this young lady has. Slainte.
I think she should open for Leo Kottke on a US or European Tour. Leo is getting old and probably won't be touring much longer, but I think it would be a great match, especially with his connection to John Fahey and MJH the like. And Leo could give her lessons during downtime; she'd end up being the best fingerstyle guitarist in the world after a few months! :) BTW, kudos to Muireann's Dad, he must be quite the player himself. I could just see his fingers moving in time while Muireann was playing. He must be the most proud man in Ireland right now... I sure hope I'll be able to get a CD before too long... :)
It's equivalent to the bards of ancient Rome. Thank you for both equally giving history a voice and delivering it technically and artistically brilliantly.
Brilliant performance! It’s great to see someone from this generation keeping the country blues genre alive and well! I learnt this style a few years back through listening to John Sebastian. It’s infectious. Well done and good luck to you girl👍

This is just a pure gift from god it really is.16 years old and singing and playing like this oh my lord. And the Brit’s better not even attempt to claim her ok, she’s Irish ok!!😂
Wow! I’m really impressed. I just happened on this and I’m really quite happy I did. Great vocals and really excellent picking. I think this young lady will have a great career. Wishing her much luck. It sounds like Dad is really looking after his girl. 👍👍🇨🇦
She honored the Rev Gary Davis with little revision, but much cleaner, livelier and fresh than the man himself, probably played on nicer guitar and no booze.
Saw this Gal on Jools Holland Hootananny !! Absolutely ACE ! She sure can play and damn sing to ! Beats a lot of so called 'chart' material ! Real music and reall singing ! Awesome !!!
Rory Gallagher would be so proud for this girl , what an Irish talent.
too true bro just love rory
And from Donegal as well

No Scraping,Scratching or Shredding needed here,just real talent!
A breath of fresh air to listen to!
This young lady is amazing! Thank goodness for younger-generation musicians who are musically descerning enough to understand the importance of early blues and other music. Bravo!
Flawlessly clean picking, Astounding finger thum independence, and the voice of an angel. Aesthetically brilliant delivery. She melts me 😢
She'd give Billy Strings run for his money !! Love her !
More like John Prine. It's called Travis picking. Billy Strings is a flat picker and is near GOAT, or at least in the top tier all time. @@jz295491
Thank God for this young Talent. Country blues lives on!

So glad to be apart of my generation to never forget the 30's music. I first listened to Robert Johnson at 13 and never stopped listening to him.
You are really gifted. Keep at it,my wife and I are looking forward to you performing in birmingham England you are going to be big 🎉
I just learned of you through Vintage Guitar Magazine. I am floored. I'm 71 and struggle mightily to play this stuff, you make it look so easy and we all know it isn't. Absolutely wonderful.
Some people got it and some don’t. I don’t got it ☹️
Holy shit! She's like nothing I've ever heard before. Great things are ahead for this young lady.
I've been playing the ragged blues since 1968, and this young woman is half again better than me. There is no substitute for talent.
She is gem . True to the music pure voice , clean accurate picking . I've been loving and picking acoustic blues for decades and I take off my hat to her accomplishments .

Love to hear her sing some Irish folk one day

Absolutely fantastic, she reminds me a lot of Rory Block. This young lady is an incredible Irish talent.😎🍀☘️
What a find, can’t stop listening to this young and very talented girl, and I’m a rock guitarist.
We all don't have the best words to tell you what a good feeling we got. Thank you little angel. We love you 💖✌️

I'd listen to that DJ for hours on end. A lovely calming voice, and he was very sweet to Muireann
Awesome I discovered your music yesterday
Your Dad must be so proud of you 🙏❤️

Edit: I wish old Bill Collings was still alive to hear what his guitars sound like in Muireann's hands!
So much sweet soul. Great job
One good thing Covid has done....brought Muireann to the limelight....I just saw her on Jools Holland....the best blues to come out of Ireland since Rory Gallagher!! ❤ btw Ballyshannon is a beautiful wee town.
This young lady is something special. I can’t wait to see what she does next.
It is great to find young musicians she like this music!
That was magnificent, and replayed her song on Jools a few times too, and that's what got me here 🙂! All the best young girl.
Just fantastic. You have a new fan from SCOTLAND. Well done.
Been listening to your videos since back before Vestapol. Old blues man in Texas. You have got it, Murireann.
We are listening to a future Rory Block or Bonnie Raitt with an Irish flare.
You are amazing and more . As an old blues fan and singer you have the spirit .
You're a special talent for sure. Can't wait to hear her album. The US will surely want to see her very soon.
I hear all the great American Blues singers in her voice. As for that guitar plucking, well that is pure perfection in itself. What a God Given Talent this young lady has. Slainte.
came across her this evening . She was on the Jools Holland Show recently too. I listened to her debut album on Qobuz and there are some great covers
I think she should open for Leo Kottke on a US or European Tour. Leo is getting old and probably won't be touring much longer, but I think it would be a great match, especially with his connection to John Fahey and MJH the like. And Leo could give her lessons during downtime; she'd end up being the best fingerstyle guitarist in the world after a few months! :)

…also do a show with Jorma Kaukonen. Imagine her playing Police Dog Blues with Jorma!
She makes this her own in such a natural way- she is brilliant!
Love your guitar playing. Your. Diction. Love your voice. ❤❤❤❤
So delighted she's getting recognition; album is astonishing!
It was always only a matter of time. Enjoy Muireannn on Jools Holland Hootananny on New Years Eve. Slainte.
@@martinmcdonald4207 Thanks....well past my bedtime but the occasion is pretty exceptional
What a talent! Fantastic finger picking and THAT voice - destined for greatness I think.
It's equivalent to the bards of ancient Rome. Thank you for both equally giving history a voice and delivering it technically and artistically brilliantly.
Brilliant performance!
It’s great to see someone from this generation keeping the country blues genre alive and well! I learnt this style a few years back through listening to John Sebastian. It’s infectious. Well done and good luck to you girl👍

Since I'm not the type to listen to music on my phone and such, I bought Miss Bradley's CD on Amazon. I love it, you will too.
I play the blues all the time in my Dublin cab, Reverend Gary Davis is a good go-to favourite.
Add in Guitar Rag by Sylvester Weaver, deadly.❤
Unbelievable good for her age top class .. get a thumb pick on that thumb 😀😀cheers from crossmaglen 🇮🇪🇮🇪🎸🎸all the best 🎸🎸
@ dieselman7453, sounded to me like she used a thumb pick in "Candy Man" but I couldn't make out for sure.
This is just a pure gift from god it really is.16 years old and singing and playing like this oh my lord.
And the Brit’s better not even attempt to claim her ok, she’s Irish ok!!😂
She's from Donegal, they're can't claim her.
The TV appearance...not supposed to talk about...Jools Holland Hootenanny☺ a wonderful captivating performance.
Wow! I’m really impressed. I just happened on this and I’m really quite happy I did. Great vocals and really excellent picking. I think this young lady will have a great career. Wishing her much luck. It sounds like Dad is really looking after his girl. 👍👍🇨🇦
Love, love, love listening to her ❤
Wow, what a brilliant singer and player, such amazing talent!
Amazing, absolutely amazing! Good luck for the future!!
Best of Luck Muireann. Astonishingly good performance. Thank god for Covid. You may never have taken up the guitar again.
She honored the Rev Gary Davis with little revision, but much cleaner, livelier and fresh than the man himself, probably played on nicer guitar and no booze.
Listen listen. Love. It. ❤❤❤❤❤
Fantastic, beautiful, such talent. May you sing your heart out special lady !❤
Sure happy she stayed with the album, she is unbelievable.
A rare talent- there's a great future ahead that's for sure. Brilliant!
Beautiful young lady with awesome talent. 👏
What a wonderful talent she is. Beautiful voice, too.
Saw this Gal on Jools Holland Hootananny !! Absolutely ACE ! She sure can play and damn sing to ! Beats a lot of so called 'chart' material ! Real music and reall singing ! Awesome !!!
Wow you got a wee star there or should say a big star keep her local God bless
She’s one of my favorite musicians
Everything about this is just great, but especially that voice, it’s like a pure crystal bell 🔔❤️
Wow! 🤩🤩🤩 - Gorgeous 👏👏👏
New kid on the block! That's it , your job for life now.
When she said, "candy man," I thought it was going to be the version by Chris Smither which would be a bit racy for a young girl.
But she's brilliant.
Second to none ...and so young. Bravo.
En sådan duktig och talangfull tjej.❤
What a talented young lady ! You will have a massive career. Beautiful.
It can't be possible she's so brilliant.
