Tell us something.: I am of Irish heritage living in Canada. I want to learn more about traditional Irish music. I think it has the most beautiful melodies. I also like Irish traditional dance. I am also looking to make new friends.

Oh, yeah: also a mod here, not a spammer. A matter of opinion, perhaps.

Hi, Cara. It's just yet another soundtrack reflecting the popular perception of what Irish music is "like". It's not real Trad at all, but a caricature. And that, I'm weary to report, is to be expected. If it has any name, it would be irrelevant and of no interest in Trad circles.

I would counsel forgetting that one, and that you would do better to go instead for the authentic. This, perhaps:
