🍻 I'm speechless. I can't even pronounce the guy's name (I'm working on that 🤣🤣), let alone comment on how brilliant his playing is. Not only that, but the physical album is the most substantial CD case and booklet I've ever held, outside of an OH MY GIRL album. Yes, I'm proud of myself for referencing k-pop while commenting on an Irish trad record. Anyone searching for tenor banjo on BC could stop here and be entirely fulfilled, although I encourage you to search for others as well. ⚡🔥🪕🔥⚡

Fans of tenor banjo who scour the digital bins of BC will inevitably come across the same few albums as the other banjo-heads out there. It's like a shared journey that will become a literary trope in the dystopian trans-human future where we read search histories as though they're archeological relics of the past. I would like to take this moment to say hello to my fellow Banjocamp mariners. This album is awesome, and it magically sounds different every time you listen to it. 🪕~~*🐇* Magic! 😮

Absolutely sensational - love the generally low-end tones and planxty-esque set up, but most of all the incredible energy of it! Wish more instrumental trad was like this, love the fact that it's recorded live too.

Wealth of Sorrow

Bright and skipping songs that foreground the sound of the banjo and fingerstyle guitar in music that feels timeless.
