as an irishman thats been playing trad music for nearly 10 years i can honestly say that if pierre went to the all irelands for guitar he would clean up big style...awesome stuff never seen those tunes played so fluently on the guitar
-
This makes me want to take someone in the arm and dance like they used to do back in the ol' days

He looks like Jimmy Chamberlain mixed with Rich Hall
-
The beginning of 'Roll Away Your Stone' is taken from this first tune ('Merrily Kissed The Quaker') which is an old traditional Irish jig. So for me when I first heard the Mumford & Sons song I was reminded of 'Merrily Kissed the Quaker!'
-
Does this remind anyone of Roll Away Your Stone by Mumford and Sons?
