Joined by traditional Irish musicians Torrin Ryan on the uileann pipes and by Mark Oien on fiddle, Oure Pleasure presents a delightful assortment of folk songs from Ireland, England and Scotland, including familiar favorites such as Danny Boy, Annie Laurie and Down By the Sally Gardens.
Torrin Ryan, 17, has competed several times in the Mid-Atlantic Fleadh held in New York, where he has come in first place for both whistle and pipes. He has also competed in the All-Ireland Fleadh held in Tullamore, Ireland, and attended Scoil Éigse music school. He has attended the Comhaltas Ceoltóirí Éireann Boston Music School, is a regular at the Northeast Uilleann Pipers Tionól, and is a member of the Boston Piper's Club.
Mark Oien has been inspired by many first-class Irish traditional players, among them Larry Reynolds, Seamus Connolly, and Tommy Peoples, all of whom recognized Mark's fiddling talents. He has performed at numerous festivals throughout New England including the ICONS Festival and at the Blackstone River Valley Irish Festival with piper Jerry O'Sullivan. He can often be found hosting sessions and performing in Southeastern Mass. and Cape Cod.
