The Sligo Indians is a long-awaited solo debut for one of
America's finest folk fiddlers. A Brooklyn native of mixed
Irish and Italian descent, New Yorker Tony DeMarco is a master
of the intricate ornamentation, swinging rhythm, and
adventurous melodic improvisation that mark the famed County
Sligo fiddle style. Mentored by the late Sligo master fiddler
Paddy Reynolds, Tony has for decades been a pillar of the
Irish session scene in New York City. 54 minutes, 36-page
booklet with extensive notes.
With special guests: Eddie Bobe, Kevin Burke, JR Davey, Tom
English, Ivan Goff, Natalie Haas, Peter Horan, Charlie Lennon,
Seamie O'Dowd, Fionn O'Lochainn, Jerry O'Sullivan, John
Patitucci and Seamus Tansey.
