Jenny Put the Kettle On is a series of  informal chats and tunes with traditional gems of Leitrim in conversation with host, Vincent Woods. Vincent interviews several musicians, singers & dancers from Leitrim and surrounding areas that have had a significant & valuable impact on the traditional arts in the locality through their music, song, dance, research or collecting. 

The series got it’s name from a tune that uilleann piper Stephen Grier documented in his collection when residing in Gortletteragh, Co. Leitrim in the 1850s. 

This first interview, featuring Alan Woods, was held in the Baronial Hall at Lough Rynn Castle on Sunday the 9th of February 2020.
