LEAHY
About the Artist
The Leahy's were raised on a farm near Lakefield, Ontario, Canada, where their roots run deep. Ancestor Michael Leahy arrived there in 1825 from Ireland and brought with him a rich musical tradition that has passed down through the generations. Each of the Leahy children learned to play the fiddle from their father, while their mother - who was raised in Cape Breton, Nova Scotia - taught them to sing, dance, and play the piano. The family quickly gained popularity as they traveled across Canada, the U.S., and Europe, playing and developing their own brand of "Leahy" music. Recordings
