Concertina player Cathy Custy on quietly slipping into a session after not playing in public for many years. On gently making a space for music in her life again. On growing up, leaving Ireland and making a home elsewhere. On the challenges of teaching adults to play simple tunes well, and how a teacloth covering the sandwiches in a cafe in Palmerston North nearly changed her life. From Dominic: Cathy and me sat in a darkening room in the Melbourne twilight as we recorded this chat, after a long, sunny summer's day. I don't know if anything of that atmosphere comes through on the audio, but afterwards we both went down to the pub and had a drink and were kind of knackered, but in a good way. Like we'd been for a long, long walk. I hope you enjoy it.   -- If you liked this episode and think you got some worth from it, then please pledge $2 over at www.patreon.com/blarneypilgrims.
