More sweet news! We have been blessed to have received endorsement quotes for the CD from three of the GIANTS in Irish music, Martin Hayes, Liz Carroll, and Tony DeMarco! We are truly honored to be recognized by these brilliant, world-renowned musicians and we’re very grateful for their generous words. This is incredibly thrilling stuff!
