James and Haryanna get some flooring in
The Fleadh Cheoil na hÉireann, Droichead Átha, Co. Louth, Ireland - 13th August 2019
After a couple of days in Monkstown, we head up to "Blackrock North", and hang around on the beach a bit. From there, it's a short trip down to Drogheda, which is hosting its annual Fleadh music festival. Fred's got hist flute and new Irish piccolo, Harry's sort-of on Bodhrán, Nicholas is on xylophone and Lua is on penny whistle (as long as it's "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star"), and the band actually makes around €10 from their on-street busking.
next album: The Giant's Causeway, Bushmills, County Antrim, Northern Ireland - 14th August 2019
previous album: Busking in Temple Bar, Dublin, Ireland - 12th August 2019
