Who's playing the accordion on a recording w/ Christy Barry?

Post by jorden »

On the Clare County Library Jukebox (http://music.clarelibrary.ie/fotoweb/is a recording of set of tunes played by Christy Barry and others: A Box of Spoons & JENNY PICKING COCKLES & Maids of Hollywell. I like the button accordion playing very much. Does anyone know who's playing the button accordion on this recording?

Although during the first few bars I thought of someone else, I imagine it's Conor McCarthy.

Off the top of my head, he has at least the 'Selection Box' CD, played with the Kilfenora and did a CD wit hone of the fiddlers of the band Annemarie McCormack, as well as the CD with Christy Barry.
