  • Bio

    .. ......Contact Box Generated from http://myspacesupport.com.. .. .. Brian Conway was born in the Bronx to parents from County Tyrone, but has immersed himself thoroughly in the Sligo style of playing thanks to contact with fiddlers such as Lad O’Beirne, Andy McGann and Martin Wynne. His first album (with fellow fiddler Tony DeMarco), Apples in Winter, appeared as long ago as 1981 and Through the Round Window was actually recorded piecemeal from 1997 onwards. Many of the tunes will be familiar to anyone immersed in Michael Coleman’s recordings, but Brian brings his own innate zest and stylish bowing style to them. .. .. His newest release is First Through the Gate recorded by Smithsonian Folkways Recordings and in 2006, he became a member of the Comhaltas Ceoltorian Eireann Hall of Fame.

  • David Franks: Walkabout…

    After you've finished here, you may like to hear this poem sung on MySpace...

    Poem cum song 5 of 230, WalkaboutsVerse (see my Blog for details):
    STATE TO STATE

    (TUNE:

    From Sydney Town,
        In uni. break,
    I drove out west
        To earnings make
    Onion picking,
        On the fields
    Of Echuca,
        That year’s yields.

    After day’s work,
        From Y.H.A.,
    A group of us
        Would not delay
    To walk on down
        To the dirt rim
    Of the Murray,
        For a cool swim.

    On one such day,
        I do declare,
    Some three of us
        Had a big dare
    To swim across,
        From state to state,
    The wide Murray -
        I took the bait.

    Yes, foolishly,
        I took the bait -
    A choice that I
        Would come to hate,
    For I almost
        Did drown that date,
    Making the swim
        From state to state.
