Since his debut recording at the tender age of seventeen, Jesse Smith from Baltimore, Maryland has been making a formidable name for himself as an exceptional young traditional Irish fiddle player. Now, some eight years later, Jesse Smith has released his second solo album, this time on his own label and with a wealth of experience behind him. The intervening years have seen Smith move from his birthplace in the USA to the thriving musical city of Galway, spend three years touring with the successful young group Danú and become one of the most noted young fiddle players of recent times. Smith’s musical upbringing could hardly have been more ideal being the son of renowned Cherish The Ladies pianist, Donna Long, and having the legendary American Irish fiddler Brendan Mulvihill as his tutor from the outset. The years under Mulvihill’s wing brought Jesse into contact with some of the finest traditional musicians playing in the US at the time.
