Patrick Lynch

Patrick Lynch: Born in 1954, Nonie’s son is the youngest on these CDs.  Originally inspired by an older brother who was renowned for his reciting of Dangerous Dan McGrew, and a neighbour, Michael Murrihey, who recorded a number of recitations for him, Patrick has been performing them for thirty years.  In 2000 he was a guest at the Cowboy Poetry Gathering at Eiko, Nevada.  Patrick works as a self-employed plumber, mainly in the Miltown Malbay area.
