I wrote these two jigs for my new nephew Ódhrán Ó Floinn. He’s half Cork so I thought a few slide-type jigs would suit. I was trying to come up with a tune for Faoiseamh for a few weeks, and nothing was coming, and then on the day he was born in July, I wrote the first part of this first jig. He’s the inspiration.
