Antoin Mac Gabhann and Caitlín Nic Gabhann : The Bellharbour Reel / Sheehan's Reel

Playing a couple of reels here with my dad, Antóin. These are two tunes that dad used to play a lot with his great friend, Chris Droney. We recorded this video in the days after Chris's passing in 2020. Ar dheis Dé go raibh a anam uasal. Chris was a great friend of my parent's and also an inspiration to myself and many other concertina players.

The kids in the background... made, my, day! This was essentially our house while the kids were growing up surrounded by music. Well done!

[@TheMerryWoman]

Very nice!! Thank you. And I really enjoyed your audience’s excitement (sounded just like my own Grandies)!

[@LarrySanger]

Thanks for the music!

[@chansherly212]

I wish someone else in my immediate family played music too.. the dad (I assume) taught the daughter, how cool is that, someone to have a tune with any time of day

[@RustyKnorr]

My Dad passed unexpectedly in February. Cherish these beautiful moments, you are so incredibly fortunate to be able to share music with your father.

[@terencemagee]

That is really beautiful, you both have a great feel for the music. I've been looking for this reel for ages and now today, at last! The one I know is by the Bunclody Ceili band in 1963, video on you tube, absolutely gorgeous!
