Bobby and Peg are fast becoming as well known in Ireland as are their brothers, Paddy, Tom and Liam Clancy m this country.
Peg, the youngest girl in the Clancy family, is married to Tom Power, and they have three boys, Kevin, Bobby and Owen. Their house in Carrick-on-Suir, County Tipperary, is high on a bank overlooking the Suir River beneath the foothills of the Commeragh Mountains. Tom works in the ofice of the local tannery, and he and Peg spend many evenings singing with the family or talking about plays and songs.
Peg has taken leading parts in many of the local dramatic club plays and in 1961 received the award at the Cork Drama Festival. She has recorded for Radio Eireann and the B.B.C., and can be heard on the Tradition records—"The Lark in the Morning" and "So Early in the Morning."
Bobby has worked and roamed in many parts of the world including Greece, Italy, Canada, and the United Slates, He has now settled down among the family in Carrick-on-Suir where he runs the insurance business started by his father. In his spare time he is off about the countryside collecting traditional songs and joining the Fleadhs Coel (song and music festivals). Because of his persuasive ways and relaxed attitude, he can get anyone to sing with him.
Bobby has recorded for Radio Eireann and the B.B.C., and he also sings on the Tradition record—"So Early in the Morning."
Both Peg and Bobby sing with a sense of ease and rhythm rarely to be found. They have been brought up m the midst of a singing family. The countryside around them and the schools in which they were taught all helped to give them a rich background from which to draw a variety of songs. They are equally well able to sing traditionally (unaccompanied) or to harmonize to Bobby's guitar. The arrangements on this record are their own improvisations.
