"Ballads will never die out," says Patrick Mc Cabe (Clones). "People have been singing ballads since the beginning of time; ballads of the famine, ballads of Irish Rebellion, going back hundreds and hundreds of years. The ancient man sang about hunting, and slaying animals. He told stories about the old people that lived before them and the happy hunting grounds and where they would go when they died. They sang of the battles and wars with the enemy. They sang and they told their stories in their tents and around their campfires.
Tom captures the mood and essence of traditional music while Singing and Playing from the heart. Patrick Mc Cabe, Clones
