Devil's Bit Sessions (CD)


by
The Nesbitt Family

Three generations of the Nesbitt family from Tipperary came together at their home at the foot of the Devil's Bit Mountain to record these tracks over a weekend. The Sessions that resulted are presented here, along with extensive sleeve notes and memorable photographs, in a recording that captures the essence of the finest of Irish traditional music.
