Description
In April 2007 at the Irish Arts Center in the fabled Hell's Kitchen area of New York City, film maker Paul Wagner and musician and producer Mick Moloney brought some of the finest Irish musicians, singers and dancers in America together for a special one-off concert.
All the artists had known one another and played together in various combinations for years, but this was a chance to meet up in an informal situation and simply have fun, make music and dance together. For two days they rehearsed and then put together a magical performance which was filmed for American Public Television and recorded for Compass Records. This album is the product of that astonishingly brilliant, exuberant and joyful
celebration of the very best of Irish music, song and dance.
Featuring Mick Moloney, Susan McKeown, John Doyle, Séamus Egan, Eileen Ivers, Karan Casey, Liz Carroll, Joanie Madden, Athena Tergis, Robbie O'Connell, Niall O'Leary, Darrah Carr, Jerry O'Sullivan, Billy McComiskey, Brendan Dolan, Rhys Jones, Tim Collins, Mac Benford, Mike Rafferty and Jo McNamara.
