Praise for the CD

Mc Gee CD Cover"The composition is in the same highly creative music genre of Shaun Davey, Denis Carey and Carl Hession."
– RTE -Irish Television

" This is an exciting and brilliantly arranged production, and I hope it gets the wide hearing and distribution it deserves; it’s a rare enough event to hear so excellently performed a recording of music in the traditional vein, but when it succeeds in weaving a creative melodious tapestry of the ‘folk’ and the ingeniously newly composed, it is an altogether unexpected delight."
– Aidan O'Hara, Irish music magazine

" Congratulations to Frank Cassidy and James Stephens on this new CD, whose music captures the spirit and essence of a man whose contribution to Canadian political life was enormous. These original compositions are a fitting homage,
whilst also being a joy to listen to. I wish them the success that they truly deserve.
"
– Martin Burke, Ambassador, Embassy of Ireland, Ottawa

Frank Cassidy and James Stephens of Ottawa have composed a brilliant album
of "traditional style" Irish, Scottish and Quebecois music of the 1800s.
