The Fields of Athenry (Guitar instrumental)

“The Fields of Athenry“ is an Irish folk ballad set during the Great Irish Famine or Great Irish Hunger (1845–1850) about a fictional man named Michael from near Athenry in County Galway who has been sentenced to transportation to Botany Bay, Australia, for stealing food for his starving family. It is a widely known and popular anthem for Irish sports supporters. A big thank you to my Bulgarian friend, Peter Pesev of Unisound Studios, for producing the excellent backing track. I hope you enjoy my instrumental version! Please note: The song and licensed backing track is the property and copyright of its rightful owner(s) and geoffers47 claims no ownership.
