I played along to this on my concertina, it synched beautifully with the violin.

[@michaelprzygocki211]

Fantastic sound. For once the algorithm pointed me in the right direction. Was watching Kilt and Great Big Sea before. Glad to make your acquaintance.

[@emmetemmetemmet-we6bx]

You're very welcome.

Both of these artists are excellent and complement each other beautifully.

[@thepoorcousins]

Thanks so much!

[@MarveliteLuck]

This is such a good mix of the softer rendition of this song and the more energetic rendition! The violin is so beautifully melodic and sung, and the vocals get me up on my feet dancing!

[@thepoorcousins]

Thanks so much for your kind words. Always good to hear we're helping people dance.

Ma chanson irlandaise préférée, remarquablement interprétée ! Bravo, ça me donne, tout de suite, envie de la chanter aussi 👍

[@WavesWallsWhistles]

Merci beaucoup

[@jimhughes2641]

Lovely version of this great classic song.

[@thepoorcousins]

Thanks!

[@jharvey9898]

My favorite Irish tune! ❤

[@thepoorcousins]

It's a good one, for sure. :-)

[@Wotsitorlabart]

​​​​​​​@@thepoorcousinsThe tune is mid 17th century English - 'The Clean Contrary Way'.
It turns up in many English folk songs such as 'Dives and Lazerus' and 'The Unquiet Grave'.

One of the first songs I learned of fiddle. Needless to say, I was gushing when I first heard it playing in the background in Assassin's Creed: Black Flag.

[@martinplaysmartin]

Bravo! An awesome rendition, the best one I heard produced by two players!

[@thepoorcousins]

Thanks so much!
