About Michael Walsh & Quarehawk
A Quarehawk: Music from Stockport, Sligo, Asturias and beyond...
Born Manchester and raised in Stockport England, I grew up learning Sligo style music from Marian Egan. In my teens I was tutored by the wonderful Tony Ryan. My music reflects these origins, my Yorkshire home and my love for the music of the Iberian peninsula and beyond. My flute playing is inspired by Roger Sherlock, Tony Howley, Michael Tubridy, Peter Horan and Kevin Henry.
As well as being a busy dad and music teacher, I am Doctoral reseacher at the University of Sheffield Department of Music, Supervised by Dr Simon Keegan-Phipps and Dr Fay Hield, researching identity and music in the contemporary Asturian Folk Scene in northern Spain. Occasionally I can be spotted with the mighty Leeds Céili Band.
My new album "Quarehawk" is released on August 2nd 2019. The album charts the last three years of my life. Celebration, loss, moving on and finding my own voice.
