Sitting down to record this, I felt like surely I must have made a video of this classic at some point. But apparently not! Indeed, in all my years of trying to earn my trad music bona fides, I have tended to only release my more obscure repertoire.
But much as I love a song discovery from a dusty book or scratchy recording, I've come to appreciate these well-worn pub classics a great deal over the last few years. I can't pinpoint who or where I learned it from - it's so in the ether of Irish-American culture that I'm probably pulling inspiration as much from Tommy Makem as from one of the many friends and acquaintances I've heard sing it on a St. Paddy's Day. Hope you all enjoy this rendition!
Oh, also...it's New Guitar Week! I'm now an Official Jewitt Guitars Ambassador. More on that later! Check out Jeff's page to learn more: @JewittGuitars

Celtic music has always really spoken to me, and you have such a nice voice for these songs. Thank you, this was another one that I really enjoyed 🙂
🎼 Wow, I really love listening to your songs!! 🎶
Gorgeous singing and playing as always Lindsay. And what a special debut for your new ambassador guitar! It’s got such a present and warm sound.

Thanks, Robert!
I’ve always known the melody as that from the Bonnie Banks O’ Loch Lomond, and was only recently introduced to it with these lyrics. Yet another great example of the shared history and crossover between Scottish and Irish music. Beautiful as always Lindsay

Lovely choice!
One of my favorite tunes to fiddle. It’s actually the melody that finally made me really learn 3rd position on my 5 string 😂
Your guitar skills are fantastic and your singing is superb, your voice evokes longing emotions. 🎸🎤 Each strum of the strings is like a gentle caress, soothing the heart and calming the mind. 🌺 Your voice, a melody of tenderness and passion, resonates deeply within, filling the soul with warmth and love. 🎶❤
Beautifully played!
Love this! And that ‘Ear Trumpet’ mic captures the sound so beautifully. Newly subscribed.
Wonderful - as always. Love that guitar!
Wow...❤ My me and my brothers buried our 16 year family dog and my wife played this song 😢

So beautiful! Though I love the guitar, I wished you could have played it on Irish Bouzouki!
Beautiful performance... cheers from Australia 🦘🦘😀

Beautiful as always.....very peaceful. Proof that everything doesn't haven't to be a complicated composition to be something wonderful. Thank you Lindsay......
love your songs girl keep doing what your doing
Lovely voice and singing. Vaguely reminds me of how late Mícheál Ó Domhnaill sang a bit.
That’s a beautiful take on an all-time classic. Heck, I can’t keep up with trying to learn the songs you post! And I am probably only tackling half? ❤

@@LindsayStraw OK. I am wondering cause for ages I have been looking for an album with a duet or duo of 2 guitar players, one backing and one flatpicking. The only one I found so far was the fairly recent one by Julia Toaspern and Tony MacMannus, which title I forget. Besides that I don't think there are others which is a pity. I reckon the sound of the plectrum is sharper and brighter for dancing tunes than fingerstyle I reckon. Flynn Cohen and Pasty O'Brien are fine flapickers too but I don't think they released any duo album yet. There is Masters of the Irish Guitar with guys like Donnogh Hennessy and Arty McGlynn but I think they back themselves and not with a 2nd guitar player. Kind musical thoughts from Brussels, Thomas 😺 Sláinte agat!

I am trying to think of albums you might like beyond Paul Brady & Andy Irvine, etc. and I'm sure they're out there but I'm coming up short. Murphy Beds throw in the occasional tune set but they're mostly doing songs. If something comes to mind I'll try to remember to share!
Hello dear Lidsay 😀. I love this kind of music very much!!! You did a wonderful sounding performance. Your voice together with your fingerstyle is sounding so heavenly 🙆♂🥰👌👏. Like #100 👍. I did a simple acoustic cover of "Barbara Allen" kzread.info/dash/bejne/Z399rqqsfqSYmbA.html Just in case you´d like to listen to it 🤗. Have a blessed rest of this week and stay healthy 🙌 ✨😇🫂💖🙋♂.
