I Kept These Old Blues: Transparent Green Vinyl LP Hailu Mergia 1 To Live & Die

I Kept These Old Blues: Transparent Green Vinyl LP Hailu Mergia 1 To Live & DieMuireann Bradley is a young blues, ragtime, roots and folk guitarist and singer based in Ballybofey in County Donegal Ireland.

I have also found inspiration for the renditions recorded here in the playing of some of the musicians who began recording this music
