Here's a 20-minute video from my friend David Murphy's cool new instrumental group, professionally filmed in a studio. Kind of an "ambient" approach, but with a lot of it rooted in traditional Irish airs and harp music.

I posted a while back about David and his recent album of traditional Irish music, done in a very contemporary way - very much like this video. Not to everyone's taste maybe, but a lot of folks here seemed to like the album as much as I do. Here's a link:

Here's the earlier thread on David and the album, with lots more info for anyone curious:

Thanks for posting, Pete.

Love the musicians David has put together and the track selection on that video. It all hits the sweet spot.

Pete - thanks for posting info about the video. Really enjoyed watching the group perform the songs.

David - great album! I've been streaming it over and over. Can't get enough of Bridget Cruise and Eleanor Plunkett. All the songs sound fantastic.
