The Chieftains
After forty-eight years making music together, the Chieftains are always on the lookout for surprising collaborations. On their latest album, San Patricio, they mix it up with the finest Mexican folk musicians as well as Ry Cooder and Linda Ronstadt to tell the story of a battalion of Irish-American soldiers.
