about

The Boys of Bluehill / The Plains of Boyle

Danny: The first hornpipes I learned as a youngster. My mother, Tara Diamond, and her father, Leslie Bingham (both flute players) were very fond of these simple, classic tunes. We tried to put our own slant on them without losing their character, using open tunings and plucking to give them an unusual texture.

Conor: These tunes put me in mind of my earliest struggles with traditional music. It was only in recent times that I rediscovered their melodic beauty and started to play them again. We experimented with open tunings to try and find new spaces in these canonical hornpipes.
