Seán is joined in Dublin by Irish songwriter and musician SJ McArdle to have an enjoyable in-depth discussion on how Kate's love of Irish music and deep connection with the country of Ireland has infused so much of her work throughout her career. We discuss Kate's Irish family connections, the famous Irish traditional musicians who Kate has worked with down the years, in particular the great Donal Lunny, and chew over the Irishness inherent in recordings like Army Dreamers, Night of the Swallow, Jig of Life, The Sensual World, Mná na hÉireann and many more! Archive clips featuring Kate, Del, John Carder Bush and Donal Lunny help to illustrate this fascinating and enduring aspect of Kate's work.
