ANÚNA - La Chanson de Mardi Gras (solo Andrew Hozier Byrne)

In 2012 we were 25 years old, and had a massive, stuffed to the rafters, gig at the National Concert Hall, Dublin. Included in that programme was music from the game Diablo III which we had sung on the year before, and this banger "La Chanson de Mardi Gras" first recorded by An Uaithne in 1990. The very young soloist on this, Andrew Hozier Byrne, will be playing in New Orleans this month and we hope it is a massive night for him and all of those attending. It was our policy at the time to bring young Irish musicians into the group and basically offer them training and experience. That ended in 2022, and today we no longer have a home base and singers now come from all across the world. It's no longer a case of doing the gig and taking a bus home today, so this is a very happy memory.
