The First Month Of Summer

This glorious album from Sligo fiddlers (and brothers) Seamus and Manus McGuire and revered Sliabh Luachra button accordion maestro Jackie Daly is as welcome as the first month of summer. This trio’s music evokes its own distinct atmosphere with a splendid selection of dance medleys, waltzes, and lush reflective pieces. From the gentle and upbeat sounds of Sligo to the lively and surprising tunes from Sliabh Luachra, Buttons & Bows‘ second release is a treat for all. Music from this recording was featured in the Disney/Touchstone film, The Good Mother, starring Irish actor Liam Neeson.
