A talk about the Irish musician Michael O'Shea from the Rory Gallagher Music Library on 19 February 2025 as part of Cork City Library's "Listen Back" series.
I was invited by Albert Twomey of Cork City Library to introduce a playback of Michael O'Shea's 1982 self-titled album. This is my talk before and after the playback accompanied by the slides I used on the day. I tell the story of Irish musician Michael O’Shea, who played an instrument made from a door that he called “Mo Chara” (my friend). His 1982 album, is regarded as a landmark cult classic. The instrument was inspired by the Hammered Dulcimer, but Michael added amplification and effects lending it a strong sense of otherworldliness. Its sound is steeped in Celtic undertones but also resonant with the cultures Michael had absorbed on his travels in the East. Included is the story of the restoration of Michael's Mo Chara and a recording of Thomas Haugh playing the restored instrument.
