Biography

Is ceoltóir agus amhránaí mé, a thug tamall leis an ngrúpa ceoil traidisiúnta, Danú. Tá cúlra agam i léiritheoireacht teilifíse; chaith mé roinnt bhlianta ag obair mar mhaor fuaime agus mar eagarthóir/stiúrthóir leis an gcomhlacht teilifíse Nemeton Teo. Bhaineas céim sa Léann Dúchais agus sa Ghaeilge ó COC sa bhliain 2006 agus cáilíocht mhúinteoireachta an bhliain dar gceann. Chaitheas seal ag obair mar mhúinteoir meánscoile, sarar fhilleas an athuair ar Roinn an Bhéaloidis, COC, mar a scríobhas tráchtas dochtúireachta, faoi stiúir an Dra Stiofán Ó Cadhla, ar ghnéithe de thraidisiún amhránaíochta na nDéise. Táim ag léachtóireacht faoi láthair i Roinn an Bhéaloidis, ag múineadh ar chúrsaí céime na Roinne, Béaloideas agus Folklore. Táim ar dhuine d'eagarthóirí Béascna, Iris Bhéaloideasa agus Eitneolaíochta COC, ó 2007 i leith, agus is mé eagarthóir sinsearach na hirise céanna ó 2012.  

I am a musician and singer, who has travelled extensively in the past with the Irish traditional music group, Danú. With a background in television production, I worked for a number of years as a sound technician and editor/director with the TV production company Nemeton Teo. Graduating from UCC in 2006 with a degree in Gaeilge and An Léann Dúchais, I completed the PGDE in 2007, also in UCC, and after a brief period teaching at second level, returned to UCC and Roinn an Bhéaloidis/the Dept. of Folklore and Ethnology, where I conducted doctoral research into various aspects of the song tradition of my native county of Waterford, under the supervision of Dr Stiofán Ó Cadhla. I currently lecture on the Béaloideas and Folklore programmes at UCC, and have co-edited Béascna, UCC Journal of Folklore and Ethnology, since 2007. I have acted as senior editor to the Journal since 2012.

Research Interests

Tá suim á cur agam le fada i dtraidisiún amhránaíochta na hÉireann, agus go háirithe san amhránaíocht mar a chleachtaítí agus mar a chleactaítear fós i gcontae Phort Láirge í. Féachtar sa tráchtas dochtúireachta agam ar cheisteanna a bhaineann le seachadadh agus le sealbhú na n-amhrán i measc an phobail, le béim faoi leith ar cheantar na Déise. Cuirim spéis i bhfás agus i dteacht chun cinn an Rómánsachais agus an náisiúnachais ar Mhór-roinn na hEorpa agus in Éirinn, agus cíoraim mar a chuaigh na gluaiseachtaí sin i bhfeidhm ar chnuasaitheoirí amhrán agus ar stór amhrán na ndaoine i bhfad na haimsire. Tá suim dá réir sin agam i dteacht chun cinn an Rómánsachais agus i bpréamhacha an náisiúnachais is léann an dúchais, in Éirinn agus i dtíortha nach í; agus i stair léann an bhéaloidis is na heitneolaíochta trí chéile.     

I have long held an interest in the Irish song tradition and in particular that of the Déise area. My doctoral thesis comprises an archival and ethnographic-based study of the song tradition of the county of Waterford, with a particular focus on the Gaeltacht area of that county. Song transmission and acquisition within the community are examined with regard to repertoire, performance and style through extensive archival and field research. I have a particular interest in the rise of Romanticism and nationalism as European-wide phenomena particularly in the 19th and early 20th century, and in how these movements informed not only the efforts of those involved in the collection and publication of Irish song in the past, but also, over time, the repertoire as practiced in the community today.
