Like Mairead, Dermot had music from his father, Tómas O Beirn), from the Gaeltacht area of Teileann, and heard all the great Donegal fiddlers, the Dohertys, Cassidys, and Byrnes from his infancy. With this start, Dermot was a renowned accordion player before he reached his teens, he has played and recorded with many great musicians including Seamus and Manus McGuire, Frankie Gavin and Pierre Schryer, and he also has his own solo recording.
