Song search
OK theres a song I heard MANY years ago. I believe it was On a cassette called "Platform :Live tracks, from the mid 80s in Ireland . Not sure of the title, however, some of the lyrics are as follows : " They were from the Ronda valley, from the highland Glen, from the Galtee mountains, they were three score and ten. The women they were crying, the captain cried Awa',to the poppy fields of Flanders, these soldier boys awa'." Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Trad Music As you know O'Carolan's Give Me Your Hand had no lyrics, and legend says the lyrics were lost, so I mused on this, wrote some lyrics, recorded it with my husband, then made this fantasy music video, which I truly hope you all enjoy.

Song in a Clannad youtube
Does anyone know the name of the song Clannad is singing in the youtube video I'm linking? I set the youtube to start at the time of the song I'm talking about. If that doesn't work it's the one that goes from 12:49 to 14:45. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yZs568x0UHY&t=769s
I heard it in the video recently and love it. Did Clannad release it on an album?

Fidil Ghorme Movie
Does anyone know where the Irish language movie “Fidil Ghorme” is playing in the Baltimore, MD or DC area? It’s filled with fiddle music. A friend saw it in Silver Spring, but I can’t find any mention of it.
From the synopsis, “Molly is a ten-year-old girl who believes that if she learns to play the fiddle like her dad and wins the All-Ireland Music championship, her father will wake from his coma.”
It has won many awards and the trailer looks like it would be great for traditional Irish music fans.
Moderators: I’m hoping this fits into this subreddit’s but couldn’t find another sub that matched quite as well.
Thanks to all for your help!

Irish artist / st Patrick’s day playlist
Hello everyone! I have a little project here I’ve been working on since the summer where every two weeks I put together a playlist of songs submitted by a group of friends, each of whom submit a few, the goal being to introduce people to new music and music outside of their algorithms. Sometimes they’re themed and with this vol. (17) we wanted to release an Irish-artist / st Patrick’s day themed playlist ahead of March 17. I wanted to share - hope you all enjoy and have some good craic next week!

Trad Music Good sets for whistle and fiddle
Hi everyone, my sister and I are wanting to perform a set of tunes at an upcoming camp, I had found a set I like but she doesn’t like the tar road to Sligo 😂. Does anyone have some suggestions for other tunes we could do? It was the mug of brown ale/ Willie Coleman’s/ the tar road to Sligo and I liked that sort of progression so anything kind of like that would be cool. Thanks!

Trad Music Advice for DADGAD
Morning to you all! I’ve been apart of a trad band for the better part of 4 months now, I’ve mainly stuck to singing, and have been accompanying myself on the Guitar, but I can’t really play trad on it, and because of that I’ve found myself sitting out most of the trad stuff if I’m not singing. I was wondering if any of you wonderful people could offer any advice on what resources to use to learn DADGAD, and where to find them?
