Biography:
Lynched was a four-piece traditional folk group from Dublin, Ireland, who combine four-part vocal harmonies with arrangements of uilleann pipes, concertina, Russian accordion, fiddle and guitar. In 2016, the band changed their name to Lankum.
Formed as an experimental-psychedelic-folk-punk-duo by brothers Ian and Daragh Lynch in the early 2000’s, the group has gone through various incarnations and taken part in a number of musical projects, including recording for movie soundtracks and TV documentaries.

From their 2014 album 'Cold Old Fire', if you're a super folky or into your trad,
it's worth checking out
Written by Harry Donovan, who had also written Biddy Mulligan ( The Pride Of The Coombe )
and recorded in 1938 by Jimmy O'Dea, this tune is about Biddys' daughter Daffodil.
This song isn't quite as well known, but still a cracker of a tune, and a great drinking song.
Also. for those that don't know, the Coombe (it's pronounced Kooem)is an area of inner city
Dublin, with probably the greatest, funniest, quarest, people you could ever meet.
