JOHN SKELTON & KIERAN O'HARE: DOUBLE-BARRELLED
John Skelton: flute, tinwhistle
Kieran O'Hare: flute, tinwhistle
Dennis Cahill: guitar
Jackie Moran: bodhran

John Skelton, formerly with the House Band, and Kansas-born Kieran O'Hare, better known perhaps as a piper, offer us a delightful foot-stomping, full-bore blast of fun and energetic traditional music on twin flutes and whistles. Minimally produced with very little (but very good) accompaniment, this recording is propelled forward by the intense sound of the two flutes playing in quasi-unison, on a most interesting selection of lesser known tunes. This album should be of particular interest to students of the Irish flute, but it has plenty to offer to the well-versed aficionado as well.
