Graham Dunne
Graham Dunne is Niamh Parsons guitarist, so if you have had the pleasure of seeing them in concert he was the one with the big wooden thing in front of him.
Seriously though if you head over to http://www.myspace.com/grahamdunneclare and have a listen to “The Southwest Wind” or “Cumha an Gra”. Just beautiful playing. The tone […]
