Although Joe Ryan left his native country almost 45 years ago, he is a proud keeper of the 'Old Clare' tradition and his music still retains the essence of the Clare style.

He has won countless titles both as a solo player and in duets. The reel playing is uplifting and would put many a younger player to shame.
