Doimnic Mac Giolla Bhríde, Eoghan Mac Giolla Bhríde, Charlie Vernon.

Doimnic Mac Giolla Bhríde, ceoltóir, Eoghan Mac Giolla Bhríde, scríbhneoir agus Charlie Vernon, an réalta peile idirchontae.

Móragallamh speisiúil le beirt dheartháireacha ildánacha as Gaoth Dobhair. Labhraíonn Doimnic Mac Giolla Bhríde, an ceoltóir iomráiteach, ar bhunús agus forbairt an tsean-nóis, agus ar an tionchar a bhí ag traidisiún na mbard agus traidisiún na cláirseoireachta ar an sean-nós. Léann Eoghan Mac Giolla Bhríde, scríbhneoir, sleachta as a shaothar gearrscéalaíochta, chomh maith le bailiúchán tomhasanna traidisiúnta nuafhoilsithe "Tomhas Orm, Tomhas Ort." Beidh Charlie Vernon, an réalta peile idirchontae, linn lena léamh féin ar mhórscéalta spóirt na seachtaine.

An extended interview with two multi-talented brothers from Gweedore. Award-winning sean-nos singer Doimnic Mac Giolla Bhride explores the origins of sean-nos singing and how it developed through the centuries, undergoing various influences including the bardic tradition of poetry and the tradition of harping. Doimnic's brother, the writer Eoghan Mac Giolla Bhride, will read from a selection of his work, including short stories and a collection of traditional Irish riddles: "Tomhas Orm, Tomhas Ort." Inter-county football star Charlie Vernon also joins us with his own take on the big sporting stories of the week.
