A tribute to Seamus
Bugler, celebrating his contribution to the music and
culture of East Clare. |
|
| |
|
Seamus Bugler is an
accordion player from East Co. Clare whose playing on the B/C
system is very much in line with that of Paddy O'Brien, the
man who re-invented Irish accordion playing on that system
back in the 1950s, and O'Brien's compositions are very much
a part of Bugler's repertoire.
He is recognised as a very accomplished
player and released his successful album 'The Luck Penny'
in 2003. Seamus has toured both nationally and internationally
with many musical collaborations, yet he remains a constant
presence at local sessions.
Seamus offers encouragement and
a warm welcome to young musicians from near and far to join
in and learn from the master. His contribution to the musical
heritage of East Clare is immense. He has broad appeal to dancers
and music lovers alike. His distinctive style of playing showcases
his unique ability reflecting his good nature and gentle manner. |
