Prodigy
« on: September 24, 2008, 09:48:32 AM »

I've moved from the PA clip thread as this one features the BCC# button box. Last week I listened to this young man play solo to a packed Eden Court Theatre in Inverness at the annual Button Box Gathering. He's playing Will Starr's "Jacqueline Waltz" on a Hohner Gaelic box. His name is Brandon McPhee, and he's 11 years old.
I just discovered this clip this morning:

His CD "A Starr is Born" has just been released.

Great Playing!Brandon has a natural playing ability.

I suppose that his father is Dan McPhee and that he's been hearing the music all his life.I'd better get my boys,Neil and Ian,started soon.
