Bio / Background
Kevin Henry, One's Own Place
"It has been tough, talented men like Kevin Henry who through music and recitation have kept the spark of Irish culture stubbornly alive-a man who has dutifully earned his own place in the great tradition." Justin O'Brien
Kevin Henry was born March 29, 1929 in the Mayo/Sligo border townlands near the town of Tubbercurry in Ireland, and from an early age was keenly aware of the musical traditions around him. He took up the tinwhistle around eleven years of age and then learned the flute after repairing an old one that had been given to him. From that point forward he practiced and added to his repertoire as he listened to musicians and attended local dances, feises, and competitions. Kevin worked as a laborer in England for six years like his father and neighbors before him. In England, he took up the war pipes so he could be heard in the dancehalls where he and a snare drummer would play the Siege of Ennis and many waltzes.
