SOLAS_AM I BORN TO DIE

A great performance of this haunting song form Shamrock City by Niamh and the band, at the Mining Museum in Butte.

In this world of death and dying, there is hope of anastasis, Powerful rendering of a song from Appalachia, Thank You.

Oh my god save me. I'm home that little church in the Ozarks of Arkansas. I can smell the forest in the air. I can see my grandmother where she always sat at.

[@jlolson53]

One of the best bands I've ever had the honor of listening to - in any musical genre. Your concerts in Davis, California still haunt me. Much love.

[@morriganravenchild6613]

This has gone very deep into my soul....the beauty combined with the stark realization that the trick of time will claim us all...

[@SundaraYT]

This and Crested Hens transport me...thank you so much Solas - you are a gift to humanity!

[@micksherlock4083]

Bloody hellfire...how wonderful is this. As any good folk singer would say..."I'm having that"...talk to me in 3 months.

[@emmamiller6493]

Beautiful and haunting 🥰

[@Yura-Sensei]

The most beautiful thing I heard in a year or so.

[@theondebray]

Wow! Hairs up on arms - again! I saw their debut of Shamrock City at Celtic Connections Glasgow 2013 (jeez, was it that long ago?!), a really moving performance, without being twee or sentimental. Unfrogettable.

[@merrileeread347]

My sister and I never missed Seamus when he played The Smith in Geneva, N.Y. my sister passed long ago, she would have loved this.

What's the name of that flute? Where can I get one? Its sound is so clear and gorgeous!!

[@davidbrown5148]

I didn't know Kenneth Branagh played flute!

[@olivierpochet3798]

SUPERBE UN GRAND MERCI POUR LE PARTAGE OLIVIER

[@MrMusicguyma]

I heard it first by Doc Watson, Solas does it fine as well. In a way, it is more pwerful done acapella, IMHO.

[@rosetaboada8176]

[@pavelsorokoletov2558]

What model of Low whistle plays Seamus here?

[@Stormwoken]

Looks like a Reyburn.

[@sarahturner4148]

Great arrangement. Another great arrangement is by Bjella. Look up the Milikin University Choir. Its amazing. My show choir did that arrangement this year for our Peter pan themes set. If anyone's interested in seeing our show, look up "BOHS Skull of Rock".

[@zamartin91]

What instrument is the flute thing?

[@newpaxromana]

A most beautiful example of a tenor Irish whistle my friend

[@symbolic140]

im pretty sure a low whistle

[@kfranceschini3151]
