Traditional Irish Music on Uilleann Pipes and Fiddle
Emmett was born in London and was taught at the London Pipers Club at the Irish Centre in Camden, with great encouragement from his parents. His solo cd, The Mountain Groves, was recorded in 2007 at his family home in Cloghbrack, Co. Galway by John Blake. This cd is available through Na Píobairí Uilleann (www.pipers.ie). Emmett has a great interest in Irish music from the 78 rpm era and with Gerry Clarke has produced three recordings of Irish music from the 1920's to 40's on the Oldtime Records label. Their fourth release a collection of recordings of P.J. Conlon is due in late 2012.
