Mossie's Story

I was born in Baile an Lochaigh, a little village in the West Kerry Gaeltacht district of Corca Dhuibhne, at the foot of Mount Brandon, the fifth in a family of thirteen – ten boys and three girls. We were brought up on a small farm of 30 acres. Irish was our daily language in the community around us. Although we used to have lessons in English at St Eirc’s school we did not use it much until we had left the district, only now and then if a non-Irish speaking stranger came. In fact, it took some time after we had left home for good before we felt comfortable speaking English.

Gaelic Heritage

I was immersed in Irish music and culture from the cradle. On my mother’s side, the Moriartys were themselves steeped in traditional song for generations back. Among my earliest ‘heroes’ were my aunt Kathleen and uncles Páid, Tony and Mike Moriarty. They were a great influence on me. I well remember when my aunt Kathleen used to come home from America they often would all come together at our house and we used to get great enjoyment from the music and the songs, most of them in Irish.
