HEATHER BREEZE CEILI BAND: WALTZ OF THE BELLS - POPULAR COUPLE DANCES
Pat Friel: accordion
Liam Grealish: fiddle
Aidan Lavelle: fiddle
Padraig Morrell: banjo
Maria Lynn McHugh: piano
Sean Bourke: drums
This is the third recording by this Co. Mayo dance band led by accordion player Pat Friel. This one focuses on couple dances, waltzes, two-steps, etc. The music is well played, and the band's selection re-introduces dances which were once popular at ceilis but have been somewhat eclipsed in more recent years in the wake of the set dance revival.
