Lest anyone doubt the power of music, I give you the life of Barry Lynch. I met Barry while on vacation in May 2012 at a pub in Northern Ireland, after he led a brilliant Irish session in which he sang and played just about every stringed instrument known to man. Sadly, Barry passed away suddenly in Spring 2023. In this episode, Barry’s daughter Hannah Lynch joins me to discuss her Dad’s life and musical journey. Hannah discusses how her father saw music as a connective tissue transcending cultures, languages, and barriers. Join me in learning from Hannah about Barry’s commitment to music, family, peace, and how music can literally change the world.
