Episode 13: Song - Clare's Dragoons

Episode 13: Song - Clare's Dragoons

Up the Banner County as we take a look at a heralded group of Wild Geese fighting on French soil. Stumbled across in an old Irish Song book, this gallant ballad recounts the deeds of the musket wielding foot soldiers fighting for the Jacobite cause.

Episode 10: Tune - the Wounded Hussar/CPT O'Kanes

A haunting tribute to Irish soldiers who served in foreign wars, this (maybe?) O’Carolyn piece has a twisty history that takes us all the way from the Sliabh Luachra region of Ireland to the banks of the rolling Danube in Austria.
