Gerry grew up in Dundalk, County Louth, in a family of musicians. His mother, Rose, taught fiddle in their home for 40 years. Gerry’s musical history starts with winning All-Ireland titles in the late 60s-’70s, travels through playing with master of Sligo fiddle player John Joe Gardiner, and touring & recording with members of Planxty, Bothy Band, De Dannan, Boys of the Lough, and the Chieftains. Today, Gerry tours with The Irish Rovers. As a soloist, he performs, teaches, & lectures all over the world. He and his music show no signs of slowing down!
