The Magory family adores singing, especially tunes about emigration that explore Ireland’s rich history and culture. In this tale, Johnny shares the stories behind some of their favorite songs with his sister Lily-May. He talks about the times and reasons the Irish journeyed across the globe, from the Great Famine to the 1980s recession. Enjoy glimpses of lyrics from songs like “City of Chicago” by Luka Bloom and “Fields of Athenry” by Michael Considine.
