The Fógues - Sweet Forget Me Not

We were delighted to reunite with Jack on our trip to Canada! We had enough time to record a song together after our soundcheck in P.J. O’Brien’s. This song originated in America, composed by Bobby Newcomb from Cincinnati. It became deeply embedded in the Irish and Newfoundland oral folk song traditions by the mid-20th century, with famous versions being recorded by Dolores Keane and De Dannan among others. #folkmusic #ireland #irish
