Recorded in various parts of the country over a period of over 60 years between 1947 and 2013. They show us a strong, multi-faceted and vibrant musical tradition in the country; one that still exists in the present day. The settings are varied – bars, living rooms, campsites, recording studios – as are the backgrounds of those who perform. The music of the Travellers, who tended to the flame of tradition while the rest of society began to lose interest is well-represented, as are styles ranging from sean-nós singing in Connemara, Donegal fiddle-playing, uilleann piping from Dublin and English language singing of ballads both bawdy and beautiful from across Ireland.” \u003cb\u003e- Ian Lynch \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003ci\u003eFire Draw Near - An Anthology of Traditional Irish Song and Music\u003c\/i\u003e is the fifth album to be released by River Lea, following records by Lisa O’Neill, Brìghde Chaimbeul, Ye Vagabonds and John Francis Flynn.
