Stockton’s Wing’s Maurice Lennon Launches New Group

A familiar name in Irish music is beginning an exciting new chapter.   Maurice Lennon, founding member of the acclaimed traditional band Stockton’s Wing, is launching a new musical ensemble called Lennon’s Revelry.   The quartet brings together four musicians with a shared love of Irish music and heritage, blending influences from traditional, folk and acoustic styles.   Their first release, The Fisherman and The Selkie, is a story of folklore, love and longing, and the group will be touring later this year.   Maurice Lennon joined Alan Morrissey earlier to tell us about this new musical journey.
