His bodhrán and bouzouki playing can be heard on recordings and films including the 2010 film “Burke and Hare” (John Landis), Barulle’s album “Mananans Cloak”, CrossHarbour’s eponymous debut album, Ranagri’s “Tradition” and Tony Christie’s album “The Great Irish Song Book”. He played Bouzouki, guitar, bodhrán, harmonium, piano, and mandocello on Matt Tighe’s debut album, and composed the reel ‘First Born’ (dedicated to the McAuliffe family) which was used on James Patrick Gavin’s debut album Chewing the Fat.
London Born Tad Sargent, whose family roots hail from Castlebar in County Mayo, started playing music at a young age on the piano. He started playing the bodhrán in 2002 after re-discovering his childhood love for Irish music. Learning about Irish music took years of attending sessions run by the London Irish banjo player Mick O’Connor.
