Michael Lavelle is an extremely talented musician who plays many instruments. Along with Cian McNamara, he is one half of the The Achill Lads and is a member of the Achill Pipeband who were crowned All-Ireland Champions on two occasions at Fleadh Ceoil na hEireann in 2016 and 2017. The tune he performs for us here this evening is called "Midnight on the Water". It was composed in Texas in the early 1900's by Luke Tomlinson. The version Michael plays here was adapted for the pipes by Terry Tully.
