Maighread Ní Dhomhnaill: A singer originally from Kells in County Meath steeped in Irish traditional music, Maighread’s extensive record collection is divided between her home in Dublin and the house she and her husband built on the site of her great-grandparents’ home in northwest Donegal; it’s in the latter that the cream of the collection currently resides. Expect to hear lots of traditional music – not all of it Irish – and a classy cross-section of timeless classic rock.
