About the artist

Only once in a lifetime do we encounter a traditional musician of the calibre and ability of Henry Creaney. When you listen to this cd you will understand that here is a man that is truly the master of his chosen instrument, the diatonic tremolo harmonica. Henry “plays from the heart”. His wonderful interpretation of the seventeen tunes on this cd will entertain, delight, inspire and amaze you. Listen and enjoy his improvisation, great tempo and ornamentation on this lovely instrument. This is Henry’s second album of harmonica music. His first album “Henry Creaney harmonica” has been very well received by lovers of good music all over the world. Henry Creaney comes from County Kilkenny in Ireland. He is now recognised as the premier exponent of the Tremelo Harmonica in this hemisphere.
Joe Meehan is, without doubt, one of the most accomplished guitarists in Ireland. He plays professionally and has released two albums of traditional Irish music featuring his very tasteful guitar style. His skilful accompaniment on this album creates a memorable experience for the listener. Joe is also a skilled luthier and is in constant demand in recording studios throughout Europe.
The cd is produced by that ace producer Dave Hynes.
