16 The Dunmore Lasses
Tune #16 - The Dunmore Lasses 🚢
Classic tune! It's pretty common to hear the Dunmore lasses played in a session in New Zealand. This is one of the first tunes I learnt, yet it is always evolving with each new variation I hear from other musicians. Like a tune with lots of faces :P
Hope you enjoy

Tune #15 - The Cobbler 👞 Another great polka! There are so many great versions of this tune and it's really fun to play, even that high B note just to annoy people with the squeaky noises :P I'm playing a fun tune in prep for our gigs today, Saturday and Sunday, check out my FB page for more info! See you then! #fiddlemusic #irishfiddler #irishfolkmusic #celticfiddle #irishmusic #fiddleplayer #...

Tune #14 - The Haunted House by Vincent Broderick 👻 It's been so cold lately that my windows started to look like a haunted house! See if you can find the little ghost that came to visit 😉 This tune is so happy for a ghostly tune, which means it's so fun to play! AND the composer Vincent Broderick also wrote The Old Flail, a common tune played here in Wellington. #celticmusician #celticfiddle #...

Tune #13 - The Galway Hornpipe 🛩 Hornpipes!! They get a lot of hate! But I think a couple out there are a lot of fun to play. I got this tune from box player Roger Stonehouse, and we play it a lot for dancing as it has that energy and bounce to keep everything lively. #celticfiddle #irishfiddle #irishtunes #fiddlemusic #irishfolkmusic #irishfolk #celticmusician #irishmusician #celticmusic #fidd...
12 Jig de Girafe

Tune #12 - Jig de Girafe by Ryan Molloy🦒 Gotta love giraffes!! This awesome tune was written by pianist Ryan Molloy and made famous on Fergal Scahill's album 'Wayfaring.' This tricky G Dorian tune is a lot of fun to play in that it uses the whole range of the fiddle, making me think of long giraffe necks, especially the A part :P #irishfolkmusic #celticmusic #irishtune #fiddle #irishfolk #celti...

Tune #9 - If There Weren't Any Women in the World This barndance is a bit of a Frankenstein's monster as I got it from lots of different people and kinda mushed all their versions together! The beginning comes from the group We Three Banjos which is usually different from how you'd usually hear the tune, but c'est la vie, that's the tune tradition 😛 #celticfiddle #fiddletunes #irishmusic #celti...

Tune #8 - Bill Malley's #2 What an amazing weekend we just had!! Such superb workshops and a ceili hosted by Irish Set Dancing NZ, I can't wait for the next one in Nelson for Ceol Aneas in June! Speaking of CA, this tune was taught to me by their awesome 2021 whistle tutor Alex Davidson. It's a great tune and can be played in either A or B minor (depending on if you're a fiddle player or not :P...

Tune #7 - The Hare in the Heather/The Morning Dew 🐰 There's no hare nor heather but all the same, Happy Easter!! The star bunny in my video is none other than my neighbour, Benji! Ain't he cute? This is another classic reel that I've heard in so many different areas; the soundtrack from Sherlock Holmes, an anime called Brave Story and also played by Matt Molloy on his album 'Heathery Breeze' to...

Tune #6 - The Broken Pledge 🎻 Ft. Bob McNeill Happy St Paddy's (yester)Day!

Tune #5 - The Snowy Path☃️ By Mark Kelly We had some weird weather in Wellington at the end of last year! It hailed so much, it looked like fallen snow...... so I was instantly reminded of this classic tune. This tune was written by Altan's guitarist Mark Kelly, which can be heard on their amazing album 'Harvest Storm.' #irishmusic #irishfiddle #tuneafortnight2024 #tuneafortnight #fiddle #celti...

Tune #4 - Mist Covered Mountains 🌫 By Junior Crehan This was the crazy weather up in Karori, Wellington on Christmas Eve! We couldn't see anything in front of us, so of course we had to play a tune with 'mist' in the title. Junior Crehan is the genius who brought us tunes like The Otter's Holt and Sheep in the Bog, check them out! #celticfiddle #tuneafortnight #celticmusician #celtictunes #celt...

Tune #3 - Jimmy's Return🌄 I got this tune from Tara Breen, Pádraig Rynne and Elaine Hogan when they played with two Sean-nós dancers for Radio na Gaeltachta. I really love being reminded that this music was made for dancing, and this tune just makes me want to dance anyway! Hope you enjoy :) #celticfiddle #tuneafortnight #celticmusician #celtictunes #celticmusic #tuneafortnight2024 #fiddlemusic...
02 Ewon an Mor

Tune #2 - Ewon an Mor 🌊 This tune was introduced to me by Bob McNeill who got it from the super tune group Anam. And if you know something, I always love me a polka ;) It's a Cornish tune with the name meaning 'Spray of the Sea' or 'sea foam.' I love how it starts all happy in G major, like a calm sea, then turns evil in E minor for the rest of the tune. Enjoy!
