Brigid Tunney comes from a long line of traditional singers who passed their songs down from generation to generation.  As a teenager she loved singing and being involved with sessions, but then she became a Loreto sister and her life became more involved with teaching.  However for the last two years she has been on a career break and decided to revive the songs she used to hear as a child and to record them.  Miriam Gormally met Brigid Tunney and asked her why she decided to bring these songs to a wider audience.
