Irish Band Cruinniú at Nyah Festival

A selection of reels played by the group "Cruinniú" at the [Nyah Festival](http://www.cavanmusic.com/ "Website - Nyah Festival") in Cavan in March 2007. The first two reels, composed by Vincent Broderick, are "The Milky Way" and "The Crock of Gold". The third reel is "The Green Mountain". The [Nyah Festival](http://www.cavanmusic.com/ "Website - Nyah Festival") is organised each year by accordion player and teacher [Martin O'Donohue](http://tastytouches.com/ "Website - Martin Donohue").

The members of the group are: Áine Bird (fiddle), Anne Marie Grogan (flute), Caitlín Ní Gabhann (concertina), Siobhán O'onnell (bodhrán and vocals), Jack Talty (piano) and Ryan Graham (guitar). Accordionist Damien O'Reilly was unavoidably absent on the night.
