Sometime after composing the Outsider Jig, with it’s pessimistic tones, I realised just how incredibly lucky I am to have a life revolving around Irish music, which has given me so much joy and happiness all my life. This reel is meant to be optimistic, upbeat and full of jolly G rolls for the fluters. I called it the Insider as that seems to be the logical opposite of the Outsider.
