Hidden bluegrass in Ireland?

The BIB editor reports:

Bluegrass talent is widely distributed, and often not in the most obvious places. At last weekend's Johnny Crampsie Traditional and Bluegrass Music Festival in Strabane, Co. Tyrone, I had the pleasure of hearing and seeing the powerful musicianship of Dalltach in concert on Friday evening - reinforcing my conviction that Irish music and bluegrass have grown closer together over the past thirty years, through the choices made by musicians from both sides.

After the show I had the chance of telling Dalltach's guitarist Michael Gallanagh how I'd appreciated it; and of learning that he also plays in the Pyros (see photo above: Michael in centre, holding fiddle) with Laurence Doherty, Ciarán Tourish, Paul Rodden, Kevin Doherty, and John Cutliffe, and that bluegrass forms part of their repertoire. How many more people are out there who can play bluegrass as well as some of us who profess to do it?
