Overview

Traveller music has been a defining force in Irish musical heritage since the ballad boom of the 1960s. As the music reached new heights, the Traveller way of life was undergoing profound change. The transition from life on the road to settled housing altered the social fabric that had long nurtured this tradition, challenging how music was passed down through the generations.
