New Sounds

Mícheál O Domhnaill (www.kevinburke.com)

Remembering Mícheál O Domhnaill

Show #2573

Tuesday, July 25, 2006

This New Sounds is devoted to music by the late Mícheál O Domhnaill, a
guitarist who, according to some, created the blueprint for subtle and driving
guitar accompaniment in Irish music. The guitarist and composer helped found one
of the pivotal bands in the Irish folk revival, The Bothy Band, and went on to
form the US-based outfits Nightnoise, Relativity, Puck Fair, and to play in
various other settings that often moved well beyond the Gaelic tradition.
O’Domhnaill passed away at his Dublin home at the age of 54, earlier this month.
