John Brady

Picture
John Brady is a flute player and composer from Offaly.

He won the All-Ireland flute title in 1967.

He has published a book of 32 tunes called 'By the Slopes of the Longridge'

It is hard to find information about John and we don't have a copy of the book at hand.

We do know that he composed a well known hornpipe recorded by Chris Droney as Bell Harbour but it's actually called The Killeigh

You can hear a short clip of him playing the tune here

Another Brady tune which has been recorded by many people is Father Newman's.
