He then replaced Tommy Peoples as fiddle player with the Bothy Band from 1976-79. After it's demise, he teamed up with Micheal O' Domhnaill, also of the Bothy Band, touring throughout Europe and the United States and recording two albums. Their US tours included such guests as Andy Irvine and Gerry O'Beirne.
