The Irish Traditional Music Archive (ITMA) is committed to providing free, universal access to the rich cultural tradition of Irish music, song and dance. If you’re able, we’d love for you to consider a donation. Any level of support will help us preserve and grow this tradition for future generations.
The title of this celebrates the traditional practice of going out with the wren on Saint Stephen’s Day. Batches of wren boys visit various towns and pubs, playing music and dancing to the sound of whistles, accordions, fiddles, bodhrans, etc.
