Oh this is fantastic. Being an American, I am used to the claw hammer style of banjo players like Mean Mary,(search above) so this is different for me--but I like it!
The DVD that this comes from is awesome . On one of the encores Winnie Horan breaks into a dance , think its Moouth of the Tobique but not sure . Tom your musical tastes are superb . If you have the Dolans DVD can you put up the Winnie dance
This guy is THE best Irish tenor banjo in the world!!! Bought a copy of his learn to play banjo cassette back in 86, amazing tunes on there. Check him out with his band, 4 men and a dog, wicked!!! The previous best Irish banjo player sadly passed away in 2006, Mr Tommy McMannamom, of the Popes. For those that know, Tom was A GENT AND A GOD. RIP.

Jim Murray does not play with At The Racket.
Michael Mc Cague is the guitar player with John Carty' s" At The Racket" band. He also plays with At First Light. Jim is a great player
