    I love this musician and found this movie I would like to share - thats all!



    Liam McGrath presents a profile of the musician and founder member of traditional folk group the Chieftains, featuring interviews and specially recorded performances.

    In a series of intimate interviews, specially-recorded performances and previously unseen archive footage, Paddy Moloney reflects for the first time on his own personal journey, and the music, the people and the events that shaped it.

    From the passionate pursuit of his dream of bringing traditional music to the world stage to winning 6 Grammy’s with The Chieftains, and from performing in front of more than 1 million people at the historic papal mass in Phoenix Park in 1979 to becoming the first act from the West to perform on the Great Wall of China in 1983, Paddy Moloney shares his thoughts on the many milestones in a remarkable professional career now in its sixth decade.

    Paddy also introduces us to his wife of 52 years, Rita who has been silently beside him throughout the entire journey.

    Enjoy
