Down through the years Stephen McCahill has gotten involved in many different aspects of both community and business life in Donegal and beyond. From Glenties originally he also has strong connections to Ardara where he currently helps out with the running of The Corner House Bar. In 2016 Stephen was named 'Donegal Person Of The Year'. Among his experiences in life so far he has volunteered quite a lot towards various causes. I speak to him about this during the interview plus about the different jobs he has had including running his own business. I interviewed Stephen on the weekend 'The Cup Of Tae Festival' was going on in Ardara. A festival celebrating trad music which was set up in the early noughties to honour the renowned local fiddle player John The Tae Gallagher and his impressive musical achievements. Elsewhere Stephen tells me about taking in a Jim McGuniness training session with Donegal while he holidayed in Tenerife plus much more. I hope you enjoy the interview.

As individual solo acts both Mickey Duffy and Jordan Mogey have gained a large amount of admirers in music, through the combination of the singing voices they possess and for their song-writing talent. The latter being how this great friendship began; a mutual love and appreciation of song-writing. Mickey originally from Paisley in Scotland but now living in Stranorlar has 2 albums behind him. Jordan from Ballymoney Co Antrim has 3 albums under his belt. Currently Mickey and Jordan are working together on finishing off an album they're set to release later this year. A compilation of duets featuring songs all written and sung by these two talented guys. I headed off to Stranorlar last Tuesday evening and caught up with Mickey and Jordan for an in depth chat about the project they're working on plus much more including talking about their influences and some of the songs they've recorded so far. Hope you enjoy the interview!
