Moving Hearts in 1982
The group was
formed in 1981 when
Dónal Lunny (bouzouki)
and
Christy Moore (vocals and
bodhrán),
of
Planxty, wanted to
explore the possibilities of linking contemporary music to Irish traditional
music.
They initially intended to form a trio with guitarist
Declan Sinnott, but then
expanded the group to include established
Irish musicians
Keith Donald (alto sax),
Eoghan O'Neill (bass),
and
Brian Calnan (drums), and
prodigious newcomer
Davy Spillane (uilleann
pipes).
