Christy Moore - The Least We Can Do

I could include lots of great videos of Christy, but this is a bouzouki blog. But on this video there's Donal Lunny playing his wonderful bouzouki. Fantastic song, deep lyrics.

gn0coach - White Hare

gn0coach has a fine style of playing the bouzouki. This is a cover of a song by Seth Lakeman. I think it's brilliant.


Wavechaser, an original composition, very interesting tune.


Pay the reckoning: A jig. gn0coach writes: "Saw kyle25rs version and thought it about time I learned my first Jig on Irish Bouzouki - cover your ears! GDAD, Capo on the 5th fret. Based on Han Speek tab"

Jig: Lark in the morning

A new video from Kyle. This time he plays the jig "lark in the morning". I like his style of playing melody and drones altogether.
