Tune of the Day: Huish the Cat
Traditional Irish jig
The earliest appearance of this jig is found in the third volume of Edward Bunting's The Ancient Music of Ireland, published in Dublin in 1840. Bunting collected the tune in 1802 from an old harper from County Leitrim named Charles Byrne (also called Charley Berreen), who is believed to have been born around 1712.
